Year 2 (Class 5) - Science - Objects & Materials
In science we have looked at different objects and the materials they are made from.
We have started to investigate why objects are made from different materials. Today we looked at a variety of balls.
We conducted an investigation to see which ball would bounce the highest.
We then…

Year 2 (Class 6) - Science - Experiments
In class 6, we carried out an experiment to find out which material would make the best pair of curtains.
We made our predictions, carried out a fair test then ordered the materials from the one that blocked out the most light to the least light.
We found the card would be the best choice of…

Year 3 (Class 9) - Science - Hearing
Today we investigated how animals’ ear shapes and sizes affect their hearing.
We discussed the different animals we knew with good hearing and then looked at pictures of animals that live in the wild. We shared our ideas about how and why their ears move.
We then tested different ear sizes…

Year 4 (Class 10) - Science - Animal Ears
Class 10 have been testing out animal ears on the playground. Firstly, we made cones to represent differently sized animal ears.
We then took our animal ears and stood 2m, 5m and 10m away from our partner who made a noise to see which ear helped us to hear most clearly.
We then talked about…

Year 5 (Class 13) - Science - The Solar System
Class 13 have had lots of fun taking on the roles of scientists this week.
They have produced this video explaining how it took many scientists many years to prove that the solar system is heliocentric (sun at the centre) not geocentric (Earth at the centre) as first thought.
Take a…
