2’s Room - Exploring Outside
We had lots of fun exploring the outdoors today! We made leaf soup in the mud kitchen and enjoyed climbing on the climbing frame. We love exploring in Autumn time with all the leaves crunching under our feet. We made sure to wrap up warm today and had so much fun!
Year 5 Science - Humans
In our science lesson this afternoon, we have been learning about the life cycle of a human and the gestation of animals.
The BBC micro:bits Have Landed!
We received some new tech in school today, a set of 30 BBC micro:bits. The BBC micro:bit is packed with inputs, outputs, sensors and radio communication features. You can find put more here https://microbit.org/ We can’t wait to get started with these!
Y3 Science - Rocks and Soils
Today Year 3 have started their new science topic learning about rocks and soils. During the lesson the children moved around the class investigating and answering questions about soils, rocks and fossils
Y3 -Science - Shadows
Year 3 conducted their first outside science experiment today. They were trying to find patterns in the way that the size of shadows change, using poles and string. Throughout the afternoon they checked their experiment and recorded the change in the shadows.
Reception -UtW - Humans
We will be learning all about humans in Science this term. Reception class explored their faces this week, the children took it in turns to look into our mirror and describe what they could see. The children were able to name some of their features, eyes, nose mouth etc. They looked very carefully and started to notice their differences, some children have brown eyes, some have blue. Some children have freckles while others don't. Some of our friends have long hair and some have short hair. The children really enjoyed looking at themselves and each other, noticing new things about their faces.
Year 3 - Science - Light Experiments
Year 3 started their first science topic today. They have been carrying out 6 different experiments to do with light.
Y5 Science - Day and Night
In Science today we were creating models that show how we have day and night. We then wrote our own scientific explanations to explore this further.
Y2 - Science - Minibeasts
In Science this week we went on a minibeast hunt. We then thought about how easy it is to see the minibeasts in their microhabitat and gave them a star rating out of 5 for how camouflaged they were.
Y3 - Science - Testing Magnets
In Science today we set up and carried out a comparative test. We were finding out which magnet is the strongest.
Reception - Working Scientifically- Incy Wincy Spider
This morning a group of children took part in an experiment! We needed to select a good material to make a roof so that Incy-Wincy spider would stay dry and cosy in this wet and soggy weather. Firstly we inspected each material, the children had a very good look and they also felt the materials before making their predictions. They all had a good knowledge and some good ideas as to why certain materials would or would not keep Incy-Wincy dry. Then we put out predictions to the test! We worked as a team to hold the different materials tight and steady, then took turns to pour the water on top. The children really enjoyed seeing how the water moved and settled on the different materials. We found some very good materials that would definitely keep Incy-Wincy spider nice and dry!
Pre School - Spring and Mini Beasts!
This week the children have been exploring Spring and mini beasts. Today we have been planting seeds to watch them grow. The children added soil and seeds into their pots and then we discussed what the seeds will need to grow. The children were aware that they needed the sun and water to help them. We are excited to watch them grow over the next few weeks. We will keep you updated.
