This week we have linked our current English book to our science work to begin investigating how we can find Peter Pan a new shadow. We learnt about transparent, translucent and opaque materials and what happens to light as it travels towards the material. We looked at various materials and Read more
Year 5 would like to say a massive thank you to Mr McDowell for allowing us to visit his allotment. Enclosed is some pictures of year 5s great afternoon out.
This afternoon Year 4 enjoyed investigating the properties of bubbles. At the start of the lesson the children generated lots of scientific questions that they wanted to investigate. Some of these included: Are bubbles a solid, liquid or a gas? Why do bubbles burst? Can you hold a bubble? Why Read more
Today we looked at and labeled the different parts of a flower. We learnt all about the functions of each part and why they are important. We also watched a very funny video about a lady that didn’t know how to look after the flowers in her house. She put Read more
Year 4 invited their parents and carers into class to join in with a science experiment this morning. We all had a fantastic time investigating viscosity. First, we explored a range of different liquids and their properties. We then used our maths skills to measure accurately. After this, we planned Read more
This week in school it is Eco Week. This afternoon in Willows we have been talking about what animals live in our school environment. We went on a minibeast hunt in Kayden’s Garden to see what we could find.
We have started our new topic ‘The scented garden’ this week. To begin we went into Kayden’s garden to plant some beans, we then looked at what plants need to help them to grow. On Thursday afternoon we went on a walk to Queen’s Park to see what flowers and Read more
Year 5 will be recording the growth of Carrots, raddishs and spring onions in our science lessons. We haw changed some of the variables to see if plants need more water, light or warmth to grow. Here are some pictures of what we did.
We went into Kayden’s Garden this afternoon and became gardeners! First we had to take all of the weeds out of our planter and then we planted some rainbow carrot seeds and watered them. We are keeping our fingers crossed that they start to grow soon!
