Discovery Time Cafe

This week the cafe opened with two items on the menu - warm milo and juice.  Waitresses showed customers to the table, took their orders and delivered their order, checking that they enjoyed their drink.  Conversation was flowing this week with stories from some very busy weekends.

Porridge playdough was also a hit this week along with our new puzzles.  What an interesting cafe we have!

Discovery Time

Energy

We have been learning about Energy.  Last week we found out that electricity can be used to make heat energy.  We made toast and milo.  This week we have used a dehydrator.  A dehydrator can use heat energy to dry out food so it will last a long time.  Mohamed thought it was like a heater because it pushes warm air through the machine to dry the food.  We cut up some apples, bananas, pears and kiwifruit to dry in the dehydrator.  It has been working all day at school.  We will check in the morning to see what our fruit looks and tastes like.
