Students learn about life in the ocean and the features and behaviours needed for living near the surface and in the deep sea. The properties of seawater are also considered, as well as human impacts. Incorporates an enjoyable playground game and choice of hands-on STEM activity.
Students learn about light and the colour spectrum, why objects are coloured, differences between coloured light and pigment and how our eyes see colour and light. They engage in two hands-on activities that combine science with art and encourage creative exploration of colour and light.
Students take a close “look” at matter and learn about the atoms that make up solids, liquids and gases in the Periodic Table in a hands-on activity with real samples. Using model kits students join atoms to create everyday subs
