Learning about the body in Y3L 🧠🫁🫀
This week, we have been linking our learning in Science and French, where we have been learning about the body and it’s functions.
Science week in year 3
This week we have been looking at light. We have investigated how light travels, transparent, translucent and opaque materials and the best material we can use to cast a shadow. […]
Y3 Trip to Magna
This week, Y3 have visited Magna to find out more about steel and its importance in our local area! We learned about how the 4 elements (water, air, fire and […]
Y4A Science
Today we explored how distance affects sound. We listened to sound coming from a speaker and took steps backwards, recording the decibels each time we did this. We had so […]
Y4A Pitch and volume
In Y4A we have explored how pitch and volume change. To do this we made musical instruments using every day objects. The children used excellent communication skills to listen to […]
Making Compasses in Y3L
For our Science lesson this week, Y3L have been consolidating our learning about magnets and forces. We magnetised sewing pins and balanced them on corks in water. If magnestised properly, […]
Investigating refraction in Y6
Today we have been investigation refraction as part of our science learning. We used our science enquiry skills to make predictions before we started and then observed carefully to find […]
Y5 Science Investigation 🥄🥛
Today Y5 took part in a Science investigation where we investigated how sugar dissolved in a liquid. Some of us chose to investigate if the number of stirs affected the […]
Science ambassador meeting
In this week’s meeting the science ambassadors sorted through some new science fiction books ready for them to be delivered to each classroom. They can’t wait to share them with […]
Investigating Magnetic Materials
This afternoon Y3F investigated materials in our classroom to sort them into magnetic and non magnetic materials. We predicted which items we thought would be magnetic. We then investigated using […]
Y6 Periscopes
After learning the science behind periscopes, we were ready to go and test them. We had to identify our enemy by naming the shape that they were carrying whilst looking […]
Y6 Science 💡
Today Y6 applied their learning about light and how we see things to create a periscope. Before creating them, we explored how periscopes have developed over time and how they […]
Y6S How we see objects 👁
This week in science we have been learning about the different parts of the human eye and how each part plays a vital role in how we see objects. We […]
The Water Cycle
Today in Y4G we have learned about the water cycle. Children have taken part in a few little experiments and have learnt a song! They have all done so well […]
Racing our Mars Rovers 🤖
Today, Y5 put our Mars Rovers through their paces. After designing and making the rovers, we raced them against one another to see whose travelled the furthest.
DT challenge- how can you propel your Mars Rover forwards?
With a range of tools and equipment in front of them, and a challenging question as their task, the y5 children worked exceptionally hard all afternoon trialling and testing their […]
Mars Rovers
Our latest gone learning project was to design and make a prototype for a new Mars rover! This morning, we showcased these and offered some positive feedback to our friends […]
Exploring gravity in y5
Today, we have been exploring gravity and defining mass and weight through practical experimentation using scales and Newton meters. We learnt all about the pioneering work of Sir Isaac Newton […]
