Nursery - Science - Exploring Shadows
This week Nursery class have accessed our sensory room to explore different shadows. The children used torches to shine light onto different objects, including their hands, balls, cars, animals and other objects from around our classroom. The children made links between the size of the shadows they saw and how far away their torch was, investigating this by moving the torches backwards and forward. The children loved this activity and have continued to develop their understanding of shadows throughout the week, during their independent learning time.
Year 3 - Science - Do Shadows Change During The Day?
In science Year 3 continued to look at light and shadows. Today they found out that shadows are the longest when the sun rises and sets. It is at its shortest at midday.
Year 5 Science - Making a Water Filter
Year 5 are learning about separating mixtures in Science. This week we studied filtration, and learnt about how useful it is - especially on the International Space Station! We made our own water filters, and were amazed at how much mud they filtered from the muddy water!
Nursery - Science - Identifying Body Parts
This week, Nursery class have been learning all about themselves and we have focused on their different body parts. The children have really enjoyed incorporating songs into their learning so we have been listening to 'head, shoulders, knees and toes' to support their understanding. The class used their listening skills and did really well, engaging with the song and listening to the different body parts that they needed to find.
Preschool-Understanding The World -Science-Our 5 senses/Food Tasting
Today we discussed our 5 senses and talked about what things we use our senses for, The children also enjoyed using their senses to smell,touch,look and hear bubble bath then we used our mouths to taste some porridge and talked about how the bubble bath smelt,looked,sounded and felt and we discussed if we liked the taste of the porridge.
Year 1 - Science
Year one enjoyed exploring their sense of smell during today's science lesson. They were tasked with naming the smells of some well known household goods.
Year 1 Science - Food Tasting
Year 1 tasted bitter, sweet, sour and salty foods this week in science to explore their sense of taste.
Year 1
Year 1 explored their sense of touch this week in Science.
Year 5 Science - Sieving
In Science this week, Year 5 have been learning how to separate solid mixtures using the process of sieving. We pretended to be gold prospectors and panned for gold in the soil!
Year 6 Science
Year 6 have been using movement and obstructions to learn about resistance in electrical circuits.
Year 2 Science - Arrival Of The Caterpillars
Year 2 have been learning about life cycles in Science. Our caterpillars have arrived for our long term study to watch how they develop.
Year 3 Science - Comparing Light Reflections
In science today Year 3 have been comparing light reflecting on different surfaces. They used data loggers with objects including tin foil, mirrors, spoons, black paper and sunglasses to see which reflected the most light.
