Floating and Sinking Experiment... 

The children were very excited during this activity. They collected things from around the room and were making predictions about whether they thought they were going to float or sink. There were some things that we thought would sink that actually floated and vise versa. This activity encouraged lots of descriptive language and encouraged the children to make predictions.  

You could continue this activity at home by choosing objects to test in the bath...

Marble Painting...

The Inventors team have many ways of encouraging mark making and writing with their children. They do this in a way that is fun and engaging and takes into account their interests and stage of development. Here is one way - special backpacks full of character pens, writing pads, pencils, rulers etc. 

Below there are a few pictures of the children using them.....
