Science

In Science last week, Year 1 continued their exploration of seasonal changes, focusing on Summer. We were very lucky as the sun came out in the afternoon and we were able to use the UV beads to show the strength of the sun in different areas of the playground. We discussed sun safety and what could happen if you look at the sun with your eyes.

Children in Year 4 learnt to classify faeces and identified that herbivore faeces is usually round, carnivore faeces is often long and pointy, and omnivore faeces is thick and rectangular in shape.

This afternoon the children in Year 1 have continued their exploration of seasonal changes - today's focus was Spring. The children watched images and videos and made 'notes' about what animals, weather and activities you might see in Spring before using that information to complete a task in their books.

The children in Reception have really enjoyed engaging in small world space adventures, using phrases like ‘5,4,3,2,1, lift off!!’ and ‘ Look out, look out the rocket ship is coming!’ They have also created their own stories, such as one child’s figure climbed the tower to be able to communicate with them.
