Here is some of our earlier science work.
Year 5
Year 5 Science group conducting an experiment comparing weights in and out of water. This is part of the work they are carrying out on Forces.
We discovered the weights appeared to lose weight when placed in the water. This was due to upthrust in the water acting against gravity.
The children compared a range of weights in and out of the water and wrote up about what they had learnt, recording their results in tables and charts.
Year 2 Class ND
Year 2 Class ND looked at changing materials. We made Chocolate Crispie Cakes focussing on the melting and then freezing of the chocolate.
We found out by heating the chocolate we could change it from a solid to a liquid and then after making the crispie cakes we could, by putting them in the fridge and cooling the chocolate, turn the liquid back to a solid.
We found out that this is a reversible change and best of all we could eat our tasty chocolate treats when we went home.
