In Science Club this week, we began our journey into space! We looked at the different planets and ordered them. We also learned about vacuums and thought about how we could prove vacuums exist....
Year 2 were fully engaged as they explored a range of hands-on activities, investigating light, forces, material (slide) and simple experiments. They showed great curiosity, teamwork and enthusiasm throughout the day, making it a fun and memorable learning experience for everyone....
In this Earth and Space Science lesson, we examined evidence related to the shape of the Earth. We sorted different types of evidence that support either a spherical or a flat Earth to better understand how scientists know that the Earth is a sphere....
This week, Year 2 have been learning all about materials as part of their Science unit. The children explored both the classroom and the playground, identifying and sorting objects made from metal, glass, wood, fabric and plastic. Through hands-on investigation and discussion, they compared different...
In Science Club this week, the children learned more about shadows. We used the figures to see what happened to the length of shadow at different times of day....
In Science this week, Year 4 learned all about complete and incomplete circuits. We began by using wires, bulbs and cells to create complete circuits. Once we were confident with this, we added in switches, learning that we can control the flow of electricity around...
Our science unit this term is Forces: Friction and Magnets. This week, we investigated how magnets affect each other. We found out that like poles repel each other and opposite poles attract each other. We linked this to what we know about pull and push....
This week, Year 3 went on a fascinating trip to The Natural History Museum, where they visited many exhibits, some of which you can see here!...
In Science and Sustainability Club, the children have learned that different foods and drinks are either acid or alkaline or somewhere in between. We used cabbage water as it changed a red colour if the food or drink was an acid and it turned a...
In Science this week, we conducted an investigation about microorganisms; we worked in groups to plan an experiment that would allow us to measure (over time) the growth of mould under various conditions. We controlled the amount of water on each slice of bread using a...
