Last week, we did an experiment on smashing watermelons. First we wanted to see if the watermelon would float or sink. We found out that a watermelon floats in water. Then we used our senses to see how it looks, how it feels. It had light green and dark green strips on it. The watermelon also felt very hard. Then Mrs B had an idea to see what it looked like and smelt like on the inside. So Mrs Henderson grabbed the watermelon and threw off the blue seats. When it smashed it broke into a thousand pieces. People started to eat and smell the watermelon. Some people said it smelt yuck and some people said it smelt nice. I thought the watermelon tasted nice. It was very juicy. After we did the experiment they asked us to do a stop motion about how it smashed. So the teachers made so play dough and brang some equipment in for us to do make it with. It was quite difficult. Unfortunately our animation did not save. Here are some photos of what happened on the day.
