Healthy minds and bodies:

Thinking critically through exploration...

We are learning about our bodies and what is good for them.  We are exploring this topic in many different ways: discussions, science, and mindfulness. 

Today we experimented with our lollies to find out how much colouring is inside of them.

We watched as our water started to wash out the many different colours. We had many questions and ideas. Why do different colours taste different?

We discussed what our lollies were made of:  sugar and colours!!

We made a rainbow!!

We talked about how the lollies seemed to melt in the water and thought about where the lollies had gone.  After all the colours came off:  We posed the question would the lollies still taste the same... The answer was yes!!

We made healthy food posters.
