Term 4 Week 5

                                                      FANTASTIC FRIDAY!
It's Fantastic Friday again and lets see what we are doing today for cool science...

First, we got into groups of four or five and sat down together on the mat.  We listen to what we had to make today . 

Next, we got a recording sheet that we had to write on when we did every thing.  Our experiment today was the Mobius strip it was mostly a strip of paper that we had to do experiments on it first we did a normal loop and then a strip of paper with a twist.  Then we drew a line on the piece of the papers and wrote what happened.  What happened was that on the normal one just went around the strip on the out side but the strip with the one twist was different because when you drew a line on the strip it started on the out side and ended on the inside.  

Then, we looked at our recording sheet and looked at everything we wrote and looked at the next step when we had to cut the piece's of the strip we cut the normal one first and nothing happened it jut split into two pieces  but when got to the strip of paper with one twist something else happened IT TURNED INTO A TWISTED EIGHT! but before we could started more strips with 2,3 or 4 twist in it we all got called on the mat and we talked through what happened to our mobius strip and saw what happened if we did more twist but we first started to see what happens when you do 2 twists in it and then what!!! It turned into a long twisted chain and that's what happened when you did it to all the twist .

                                         In Conclusion
It was so fun doing that in my group and especially when we got to see what happened when you did more twist okay good bye!
P.S You can do this at home if you want!
