Year 5 Science Day.

Today in Year 5 the children had to make a boat from a template to float in water and then add cubes to see how many it took to sink the boat. This quickly became a friendly competition between teams and individual children. It was a pleasure to watch! The next task saw the children then make their own boats and again add cubes to see how many it took to sink. The designs the children came up with were absolutely fantastic and Tyler and Bill's boat took over 200 cubes to make it sink! Awesome! Well done to all for a fantastic morning!

KS2 Science Show!

To continue our Science day the children watched an amazing Science show in the afternoon based on friction. The children's reactions were priceless! It was such an educational show with fun and amazement had by all including the staff! At the end of the show, he showed children safe investigations that they could complete at home. An amazing afternoon. The children want to thank Mrs Davies for an amazing, investigative, awe inspiring day!

Pre School- Physical Development- Making Bubbles

The children have been learning how to make their own bubbles. We used water and liquid to make the mixture and then the hoops to make the bubbles. The children loved popping the bubbles with their fingers and watching them bounce up and down in the hoops. We tried to make them blow in the wind but they popped.

Year 4 Science - Will Location Change How Water Evaporates?

In Science, Year 4 have been looking at whether location changes how water evaporates. They placed bowls of water outside in the sun, in the shade by the building, inside on the window bottom and next to the bookshelf. They then predicted which bowl of water would evaporate most. Over the next 3 days they will check the bowls and measure the water.

Year 4 Science - Observations Over Time

Year 4 have been observing changes of states over time this week and making predictions which materials have a reversible change and which are irreversible. We also discussed which liquids you can freeze and which liquids have a freezing temperature above or below that of water when they change state into a solid.

Year 3 - Science- Learning how Muscles Work.

Year 3 have been learning all about animals including humans in science. Today they have looked at how muscles work. They cut out pictures of two bones then joined them together using a split pin to make the joint move. They added an elastic band to act as the muscle and to see how it affected the joint.

Year 5 Science - Living Things and Their Habitats

Today in our science lesson we looked at the differences in the life cycles of a mammal, an amphibian, an insect and birds. Children also discussed parts of plants. The children had to use this knowledge to put the animals and plants into their correct life cycles.

Science Year 2 - Classifying Objects

Today in Science we were being scientists by classifying objects. We had to record objects we could find that were alive, once alive or never alive.
