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.

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 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.
