Hi all!
 
As I have been searching for useful resources, I came across a really good website which may be helpful.  It has been split into units therefore it is easy to navigate in order to find what is appropriate for you. More importantly, the majority of the activities are free and ready to be downloaded. Alongside this, it has a brain level to show the complexity of each task/investigation with videos and games to support the learning.

Check out the link below and give some of the activities a go!

As part of our science week extravaganza, the children of Park Street had the pleasure of watching a performance from the talented actors at Kinetic Theatre. This years show was named the light fantastic and was a great way of bringing science to life. Alongside this it provided the children with an excellent explanation of how light travels and why/how we see different colours. 

​In nursery we have been Scientists as we explored gloop in our investigation tray. Firstly we mixed the cornflour and water together and talked about the texture. As we played with it we noticed that it changed consistency in our hands! The children used some great words such as hard, sticky, wet, slimy, runny and soft to describe it.
