The children explored this theory by placing their hands in freezing water, room temperature water and hot water. The children recognised that thermal equilibrium can be reached through the transfer of heat through a conductor, such as metal. We Read more

Human form – skulls
This week we have been inspired by Damien Hirst’s skull art works and other examples of decorated skulls in different cultures. We traced over an image of a skull and then decorated it using pastels and patterns of our choice.

Today Year 6 started their new topic in Science – Heat. First the children recapped prior learning all about states of matter and how particles behave. Through drama, the children demonstrated the behaviour of particles before they started to learn about the effectives of heat on the particles as they change state. Children watched a demonstration of ice melting, chocolate melting and also condensation. They then had to verbally describe the changes in state to Read more
