This week your science experiment needs very limited resources but a lot of imagination. Your task is to create milk art and discuss why it has worked the way it worked. Good luck, we look forward to seeing your milk art. Milk Art
This week we have started our new topic about light. We conducted an experiment to see how light changed when using transparent and opaque items in class.
This half-term, Year 1 are going to be writing a travel journal. Yesterday we learnt about what a travel journal is and watched a travel vlog to help us gather ideas about the type of things we will write about. Today we watched videos about safaris so we could remember Read more…
This weeks Science experiement is ‘creating your own lava lamp’. The science behind the lava lamp – The oil floats on top of the water because it is less dense or lighter than water. The food coloring has the same density as the water so it sink through the oil Read more…
To mark the end of our ‘Physical and Chemical Changes’ topic, Juniper have carried out an investigative task which challenged them to free a toy car from a block of ice using pure salt, rock salt and bicarbonate of soda. They had to find out which substance would melt the Read more…
As last years home experiments were so popular, we have decided to do them again. Over the next few weeks, we will be posting different experiments on the blog that you can do at home with your parents or carers. This week our aim is to get 20 children across Read more…
In Year 4 we have been learning about the Rock Cycle. We began our Science lesson today with a Kahoot to go over facts that we had previously learnt about rocks. We then used play dough to explain the process of how the different rocks are formed. We began with Read more…
This afternoon we have been investigating chemical reactions. We observed the effect of changing the amount of vinegar on the reaction with sodium bicarbonate. We discussed our findings and concluded that the more vinegar there is in the mixture that is added to the sodium bicarbonate, the more it fizzed Read more…
We began our Science lesson today with a Kahoot to go over facts that we had previously learnt about rocks. We then used playdough to explain the process of how the different rocks are formed. We began with igneous rock that is created when magma cools to form rock. We Read more…
To end our science topic, Year 6 produced high-quality academic essays to show how much we learnt across our unit. We looked at the key concepts, knowledge and facts that we knew and then planned how to articulate these, using our writing skills and academic vocabulary. We then used Read more…
