Science with Mrs Stead

Science this morning with Mrs Stead.

The boys were completing experiments learning about how solids turn to liquids and then gas. They also learnt that some solids turn to a liquid and then return to a solid once they cool down. The highlight for all groups was when they burnt Magnesium in the flame.
