We have been looking at one of our main science skills “observing over time”. We planted sunflower seeds 2 weeks ago and we put each pot in different conditions to test to see what conditions plants can survive in. One pot had no light, one...
This half term, year 6 have been studying fossils in science and instructions in writing. We made our dinosaur fossils using salt dough and we wrote instructions on how to make these fossils in writing. Next week, we will be painting the fossils in art...
In Science this week we learnt about the transportation of water in plants. We then did an experiment with white flowers and food colouring where we predict that the petals will turn blue!...
As we have been continuing to explore plants, we have been using our observational drawing skills to look closely and draw the colours, shapes and patterns we can see! We used a bunch of fresh flowers to explore the parts of a plant, naming the...
A huge thank you to everyone who brought in junk modelling materials! Nursery have had a blast making a bug hotel to host all of the amazing minibeasts we've been finding in our outdoor provision. ...
We have had lots of fun exploring the plants and insects we have around us in our environment. We have found some snails, spiders, butterflies and ladybirds and have created signs and habitats to keep them safe. We have learnt about things they need to survive,...
At Dalston curve garden we learnt about seeds and seed dispersal. We made our very own flying seeds....
In Science, we are learning about fossils. Our first lesson was quite interesting as we had lots to talk about due to previous learning. It was also very interesting & shocking to learn about Mary Anning’s involvement in the discovery of fossils....
Our first class text this term is 'Jack and the Beanstalk' and whilst at the Curve Garden this week we were lucky enough to handle and plant some big, brown beans just like the ones that Jack was given. We are wondering whether ours will...
This week as part of our science enquiry, we devised a fair test to see what variables could impact the brightness of a bulb in a circuit....
