Trev's S.O.S to Lanesend Year 3's!
We received a letter from Trev, an Alien from a planet far away. His planet was in danger, so he brought his alien babies to us for safe keeping. There was only one rule that we had to follow in order to keep the babies alive - they must remain encased in ice at all times!
The children were told that Trev would be back after school to collect the babies once he had finished the work that he had to do. The children had a variety of materials and conditions available for them to use. Some methods were more successful than others!
After about an hour we checked on the alien babies. Unfortunately we were only able to save some of them for Trev as many had no ice left around them as it had melted. We reflected on the methods that we had used and discussed how we could be more successful in future if Trev ever trusted us again!
