Year 4 (Class 9) - Science - Pitch
Class 9 enjoyed investigating pitch in their Science lesson.
We worked out that smaller objects produced higher pitched sounds.
We also found that glass bottles have a higher pitch when they contain less water.

Year 5 (Class 12) - Oracy & Science - The Earth
Class 12 took part in a debate today like scientists of the past to argue if the Earth is flat or spherical.
They concluded of course that the Earth is spherical and could provide numerous pieces of evidence for this.

Year 4 (Class 11) - Science - Pitch
Today we began learning about sound. We investigated pitch using different instruments and identified the patterns we found. We learnt that sound is a vibration and felt the vibrations of different instruments and tuning keys.
We then looked at science in action and learnt how scientists…

Year 6 (Class 16) - Oracy / Science - Earth and Space
In our first lesson of Earth and Space, we stepped back thousands of years ago and looked at the evidence that scientists came up with to decipher whether the Earth was flat or a spherical body.
The children were split into teams and had to become the scientists, and argue their points using…

Year 3 (Class 8) - Science - Living Things
Today in science class 8 thought about what living things need to survive.
We then looked at what humans need to stay healthy and the different food groups.
Children worked together to sort food packaging into food groups.

Year 6 (Class 16) - Design Technology - Preserving Strawberries
Class 16 have enjoyed trying the different ways that strawberries can be preserved.
They tried tinned, dried in the air fryer and jam. The jam was the winner.
Some of the children were surprised how nice the tinned ones tasted once the got over the look of them.

Year 6 (Class 16) - Science - Finches on The Galápagos Islands
Class 16 have been learning about the evolution of finches on the Galápagos Islands.
We experimented with different beak types to empathise with the finches and understand why they evolved their beaks the way they did.
We especially enjoyed learning about the blood sucking vampire…

Year 3 (Class 8) - Science - Human Skeletons
This week in science we have been looking at human skeletons. We worked in groups to play a game where we had to collect bones and make a skeleton.
We then labelled a skeleton and self marked our work.

Year 4 (Class 11) - Science - Skeletons
Today we developed our knowledge of human skeletons by playing ‘skeleton drive’ We had to roll the number we needed to collect the bones one by one.
We were in a race against our opponents to create a complete skeleton.
