Which solution will decay the apple first?
Today, we took part in an experiment. We covered a piece of apple in a range of solutions (lemon juice, vinegar, sugar and salt) and we are going to observe the apple to see which solution decays the apple the most. We made predictions and we will conclude our...
Egg rolling 🥚
What a fun afternoon we had rolling eggs down the hill. First the children decorated a boiled egg, then we all hopped like bunnies to the big hill. The children had an 'eggcellent' time rolling and throwing the eggs down the hill to see how far they would go. We then...
Do woodlice prefer dry or wet conditions?
In today's science lesson, we took part in an experiment to find out whether woodlice prefer dry or wet conditions. We predicted that they would prefer wet conditions, as we found them underneath a wet log. We brought the woodlice back to the classroom and put them...
Life Cycle of a frog 🐸
This week in Early Years, we have been learning all about the life cycle of a frog. We have looked through books and stories to see how frogs lay their eggs and how they eventually turn into a frog. We have learnt lots of new language including habitats, frog spawn,...
Microhabitats and woodlice galore
In 1.2M, we took advantage of the good weather and took Science outside to hunt for microhabitat and minibeasts in our very own playground. We used a tally chart to count up our different creatures in two microhabitats. We mapped out the playground to show where we...
Life Skills- Hand Washing
In this afternoon's life skills lesson, we have been learning the importance of hand washing and when we have to wash our hands. We followed the germs from Ms Wood's hands around the classroom, through the use of post-it notes and we realised how far germs can travel...
