Kestrels’ latest topic is ‘Changes in Materials’ and this week, they have been finding out what happens when certain chemicals are mixed together in a solution. They were asked to mix water with bicarbonate of soda, vinegar with water and bicarbonate of soda with vinegar.
They learnt that there is a chemical reaction with bicarbonate of soda and vinegar) Hollie certainly did when the balloon exploded from off the top of the test tube!
This week the children in year 5 were studying how to create shapes using LOGO. They followed precise instructions and created some very impressive shapes. They are becoming competent computational thinkers, solving problems they come across with ease. Well done Kestrels!
Today we were going to take part in the Science Week Live Lesson.
Now, you might want to take part in it at home!
Loading...Well done, Kestrels! A fabulous poetry performance.
Today Kestrels visited Toucan’s classroom to read with the children. They chose some super books to share with them and thoroughly enjoyed it!
This week is all about Books and Reading and today, Year 5 participated in the live lesson from the BBC. They received advise from Michael Rosen (one of our favourites!) And had a chance to take part in activities such as drawing a character and writing an ending to a story with a new twist! It was great fun and the children got to see lots of children dressed up in costume to celebrate World Book Day! The children are now so excited to be dressing up for our special celebration of books, tomorrow.
