Fairy Bread, Rock Collections and Mining!











In 2BP this week we learnt how to cut Fairy Bread into quarters. Of course we had to eat it when we finished - a quater at a time until the whole piece of bread was gone! Did you know that two quarters is the same as one half and four quarters is the same as one whole?
We also profiled the rocks in our class Rock Collection. We used magnifying glasses to look carefully at the rocks and then using a Rocks and Minerals chart we profiled our rocks by look, feel and type. What great scientific work 2BP!
And to finish the busy week off we had a parent visit the classroom who is also a Miner. He bought in some special mining equipment including a hard hat/light and a safety vest. We learnt about the type of rocks mined at the mines in Mt Isa and how hard it can be to find rocks with copper and lead in them.
