With regard to the theatre play we saw last month -Cinderella-, 2nd graders have prepared their own party invitations, making them as decorative as possible. Then they handed them out to their friends!

Birds of prey
Third graders have been to Cim d’Àligues today. They have learnt about the characteristics of each species of the amazing birds of prey, such as eagles, vultures, owls or buzzards. Take a look at the photos of the flight session near the edge of a cliff. They had a blast!
Experiment: Hollow Bones
Birds have hollow bones. Hollow objects are lighter than solid objects and, because of this, birds can fly. In this science activity 3rd graders saw how strong hollow bones can be!
1- Roll 3 sheets of paper into tubes. Tape the edges of the paper so the tubes don’t unroll. Now you have 3 “bones” in all.
2- Stand the 3 “bones” on end and then balance a paper plate on top.
3- Add coins to the plate one at a time to see how much the structure can hold. (We used some craft jewels instead).
4- Continue adding coins until the “bones” collapse.
Our feathered friends
