Year 4 (Class 11) - Science - Different Circuits and Lights
In our science lesson this week we tested whether a lamp would light up when connected to different circuits.
We made the circuits using light bulbs, wires and batteries and then explained why they did or did not light up.

Year 3 (Class 8) - Science - The Rock Cycle
Today we started our new science topic, rocks! We used starburst to show how the rock cycle works by turning sediments into bigger rocks using heat and pressure.
We then identified different rocks using a key. Finally, we studied a single rock and observed its properties.
We looked at…

Year 4 (Class 11) - Science - Circuits and Electricity
Today we started our new topic in science. We are learning about electricity.
We looked at what electricity is, new vocabulary and symbols used to draw circuits.
We then played a game in pairs where we had to build our own circuits.

Year 3 (Class 8) - Science - Grow to School Project
This year we are lucky enough to be involved in the ‘Grow to school project’.
We will be visited every half term by a grow leader and spend time developing our wildlife garden and growing vegetables.
On our first visit, we learnt some of the different vegetable families and we readied our…

Year 1 (Class 4) - Science - Seasonal Changes
In Science we have been learning about the seasonal changes that take place in autumn. We went outside to look for evidence of these changes and found lots of different coloured leaves.
We then made pictures to show what happens in autumn.

Year 1 (Class 4) - Science - Rain Gauges
Year 1 enjoyed making rain gauges to measure the rainfall.
We will use these this year to measure how much rain there is in each season.

Today we used our oracy skills to discuss how we could investigate a question.
We then conducted a class investigation to test how strength of vibrations could effect volume.

Year 4 (Class 11) - Science - The Human Ear
Today we learnt about the human ear. We learnt about how sound travels through the ear, into the ear and down the ear canal.
We looked at the internal structure of a human ear and labelled the different parts. We also did an investigation into animal ears and why they are shaped and move…

Year 3 (Class 9) - Science - The Human Ear
Class 9 have been investigating how the ear works and the names of its components.
They also made different sized paper cones to use to investigate if they could hear music better with small, medium or large cones.

Year 4 (Class 11) - Science - High Pitch Sounds
Today we carried out the investigations we planned last week to find out whether high pitched sound travel further than low pitched sounds.

Year 5 (Class 12) - Oracy / Science - The Solar System
This week Class 12 have been investigating if the solar system is heliocentric or geocentric. They discussed the evidence formed over a long time periods from 15 different scientists.
Take a look at our video.
We concluded that the solar system is heliocentric.

Year 6 (Class 16) - Science - A Geocentric Solar System

This week, the children looked at the scientific evidence for the belief in a geocentric solar system and a heliocentric solar system.
The children then acted this out, becoming the scientists and explaining how opinions and evidence changed over time.
