Team CW - Changes Over Time

Before the holidays the Rainbows were learning about changes. They decided to observe some bread, a carrot and an orange from the snack area over time to see how they changed.

After a couple of weeks the Rainbows were excited to talk about changes they had seen.

They were surprised that the bread didn't look any different but it felt a lot harder. 

They described the carrot as "brown" and "mushy" and noticed that the top of the carrot had started to sprout and was growing leaves. We talked about moisture in the bag and that the bag was placed in the sunlight.

The final piece of fruit had changed the most. The Rainbows described the orange as "green and white" and "fluffy." They learnt the word "decompose" and know this means that the fruit is breaking down into parts and has changed to be mouldy.

They spoke about how important it is to not to waste food and eat it before it starts to change and break down/decompose. The Rainbows thought the mouldy food looked disgusting!
