PYP: we have been having loads of fun while learning about how matter changes our world. We have worked on both physical and chemical changes; last week the kids combined a couple of liquids with a couple of solids and created a new solid: playdough. They also created a gas by combining a solid and a liquid, and 'blew' up a balloon in the process!
