What is the best material to make a lunchbox out of?

We have been looking at propeties of materials in Science this half term, we designed our own experiment to investiagte thermal insulators, looking at which material made the ice melt the slowest. Here are some photos of the fun we had!

Which magnet is the strongest?

In Year 3 we have been learning about forces and magnets, last week we created our own experiment to work out which was the strongest magnet. Have a look at our photos to see what we got up to.

Year 3 Prehistoric Art-Making Paint.

Year 3 had lots of fun this afternoon trying to create paint of different shades with natural resources. We did some foraging around the school and at home and then tried to use the resources we had collected to see if we could produce some colour. We then had a try at making our own paint with flour, water and a variety of spices. Have a look at how we got on and why not have a go at home yourself?

Year 5 - Science

 We were investigating properties of materials - their permeability and magnetism. As part of this, we had to create our own fair test and discuss our findings.

As well as scaling up their animal drawings yesterday, Year 3 also experimented using charcoal. Not only were they drawing and blending with charcoal and chalk, they had a lot of fun crushing it up and smudging it with their hands to create that 'cave' effect. Take a look at their efforts:-
