Year 4 (Class 11) - Oracy / Science - Investigating a Question
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.

Year 4 (Class 11) - Science - Sound Hunt
Today we went on a sound hunt around school. We made predictions about the loudest and quietest places in school.
Then we visited them and measured the volume with data loggers.

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 4 (Class 10) - Science - Pitch
Class 10 had a fantastic time investigating pitch with musical instruments.

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…
