Science investigation - Separating solids

This afternoon the children investigated the following question,

Can I separate 3 different solids?

Look at the mess I made. How many different solids can you see?

 Using anything available in the classroom, but not fingers, the children had to investigate ways of separating sand, sweetcorn and pasta.

What happened?

Here is a solids and liquids game you could try

Here is a Solids, liquids and gases game you could try. See if you can remember what you learnt in Y3.

A great set of activities can be found here from Woodlands Primary School.

Have fun and tell me what new skills and knowledge you now have as a result of this afternoon.
