Looking at all the amazing classroom displays. Great use of post-it notes to collect pupil voice.
Twinkl currently has some great Science resources. I'm loving the fact that video clips are embedded in the ppts.
The school is signed up to Mission X (trainlikeanastronaut.org/) Very excited! Perhaps the next British astronaut is in the school!

Year 3 have been linking Science to the book 'The Wind in The Willows' as they are studying this in English.
Year 5 have started their first unit of the year with an elicitation of what they know and what they want to find out about materials.
Brilliant digestion experiment last week using tights, rubber gloves, funnel and balloon for the organs. Got a bit messy though!

Fantastic fun last week when some year 4 children went to playgroup to teach them about circuits.
Chicks hatched in Year 2 yesterday. All are doing well. I think the teachers are even more excited than the children about the new arrivals!

Year 4 made their own 3D model of the digestive system today. Food was mashed up to go in the mouth and 'poo' came out the end. Great fun!

'I enjoy it when we do science in school, I find that I ask more questions and want to find more out.' Great quote from today! #Science
