This week in #NatureQuest in www.the2poundtuitionhub.com, we continued our journey in our Underground Worlds block - exploring rocks and soils and real-world impacts - by becoming chocolate geologists and making models of sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks as we delved into the rock cycle.
colourful printout including a table with example models of chocolate rocks looking delicious and sticky

We estimated using the Beaufort scale, practised monitoring wind direction and took some measurements of distance travelled over time to record the speed… which was pretty much zero today on the eve of the autumn equinox 😜 and made a wind sock! #ScienceIsEverywhere #BeCurious #DrJoScience

Testing wind speed and direction today in #CuriosityClub The Elemental House ….might have been more fun if it were a tiny bit windier 😂 We estimated using the Beaufort scale, practised monitoring wind direction and took some measurements of distance travelled over time to record the speed…

💭 Flatten it out and then try to fold it up, working outwards from the centre 💭 The outside edges of the sun should all line up in a single line 💭 Snip the single line and unfold to reveal your swan....

Dr Jo Science @drjoscience.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Top tips: 💭 Maybe print it out on bigger paper so you've got more space to work with 💭 Pre-fold all the folds first one way, and then the other, with really sharp creases 💭 Fold the dashed lines upwards like a mountain 💭 Fold all the dotted lines downwards like a valley

Calling all my #STEAMExplorers in the2poundtuitionhub Has anyone had a go at the swan from our fold-cut theorem lesson yet? 🦢 It is reeeeeaaaaallllllly tricky! The star and letters were much easier! How did you get on?
