Pine have been investigating irreversible changes this morning. We planned an experiment to answer the question: Does the amount of vinegar affect the amount of new material (gas) created? We put different amounts of vinegar into 5 separate bottles. We filled 5 balloons with the same amount of bicarbonate of Read more
In our science topic, we have been looking at properties and changes. Year 5 carried out an experiment to test thermal conductivity. The children had 4 cups per group and wrapped each one in a different material – aluminium foil, bubble wrap and newspaper. The children’s cups were then filled Read more
In Science today the children have carried out an experiment to determine the conductivity of different materials and link this to their uses. They wrote a detailed, organised method to follow, including variables, measurement, equipment and safety.
This half term during science lessons, we have been learning about materials and their properties to see which materials would make the best wall to use within a rainforest. The children have worked together to build the walls and we have then conducted experiments, first predicting which materials would be Read more
Year 2 took part in a Coding workshop focused on healthy eating. The children met a robot called Al who needed algorithms to help pack a healthy lunchbox. They also explored how to debug when mistakes occurred. The class asked thoughtful questions about Coding, such as why humans don’t just Read more
During our science lesson, we created walls for the classroom in a rainforest using a different range of materials to see if they are waterproof. We worked in teams and listened to one another to build the walls. We also thought about which jobs would help us build walls in Read more
A big thank you to all of the parents and grandparents that attended our shared 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 then completed Read more
We have all enjoyed reading ‘Room on the Broom’ this week. Reception have been very busy making potions to help the witch, acting out the story and creating their own characters.
During our science lesson today, Year 5 have started their new topic on materials and their properties. Today’s focus was hardness. The children were given a selection of items made from different types of material that they had to organise into groups depending on whether they thought they were a Read more
A big thank you to all the parents and family members who joined us for our shared learning session! We began by exploring our Skills Builder and discussing how these skills connect to our lessons and a variety of careers. Next, we turned into detectives, searching for clues to answer Read more
