Science
Electricity
The children have looked at how electricity is made, which appliances use electricity and its dangers. They were then challenged to use the equipment provided (bulbs, bulbs holders, wires and batteries / cells) to make the bulb light. After some trial and error they worked out how to make a complete circuit to make the bulb light.
Electricity
Animals and their habitats.
The children sorted animals according to their own criteria.
We used the classification key to identify each of the classes of vertebrates.
The children used the classification key to identify some images of various invertebrates.
Class 6 researched some invertebrate to find their appearance, habitat and characteristics.
British Science Week
The children learnt about some inventions and how they were invented. They were surprised to find out that the first mobile phone weighed the same as two loaves of bread, that Siri was only introduced 2 years before they were born in 2011 and that I had to walk to the T.V. to change the channel.
We then watched a Science Max video about sound. The children were then challenged to design and make an innovative musical instrument.
British Science Week!
