Year 3 loved creating their ramps out of different material to test how far the toy car travelled. They used the same car, left the height of the ramp the same but changed the material that was on the ramp. We were talking about friction and how some materials create Read more
Today we have been comparing physical and chemical changes. We recalled our knowledge of what a physical and a chemical change is. We investigated the similarities and differences between the two and how we could define them. We also used a venn diagram, linking in with our Maths work, to Read more
In Science last half-term, Year 1 learnt all about materials and their properties. This half-term we are using this knowledge for our new topic ‘Building things’. To link with our careers learning, today we had a special visit from Mr Singleton. Mr Singleton is our school site manager and he Read more
In our science lessons, we have been learning about different materials and their properties. We can identify the materials that objects are made out of and what properties that material has. Children have really enjoyed investigating different materials to see if they are waterproof or not waterproof. We are looking Read more
Our school nurse came into school to talk to us about healthy eating. She was really impressed with our knowledge so far that we have been learning in Science and Design & Technology. We looked at how much sugar is in different drinks then we had to guess how many Read more
This afternoon Year 2 took part in a fantastic Science show with the Scientist Adrian Bowden. We completed lots of different science experiments and looked at some Science vocabulary like: predict, classify, test and measure.
A big thank you to all of the parents and grandparents that attended our share lunch and learning. It was a big success and the children and adults had a great time. We started our new topic about Human Lifestyle and learnt all about the organs in our body. We Read more
Thank you to all the parents and grandparents who came to our shared lunch and learning. The children had so much fun (and I hope the adults did, too). We started our first Science lesson about organs in our body. We completed a quiz about the heart, lungs, stomach, skin, Read more
This afternoon Pine have been carrying out a separating investigation. We used our knowledge of filtering and sieving to separate our river water back into pure substances. We used lots of equipment: filter paper, funnels, beakers, sieves. We discussed our ideas and planned our method. We finished with some fantastic Read more
In Science, Year 1 have been learning about materials and their properties. We have really enjoyed taking part in a number of experiments, including finding out if various materials are transparent, translucent or opaque, if materials float or sink and if materials are waterproof or absorbent. The children made some Read more
