Today we have been learning about the function of the root and how this part keeps the plant healthy. We watched a short clip on the two different types of roots and discussed how these are different before exploring the roots of a viola plant and a carrot. 28.09.20 During science, the children carried out an investigation as a whole class to find out what the function of a stem is. Through adding different coloured dyes to the water the children were able to explore through the observations that the stem allowed the water to travel through to reach other parts of the plants. This was shown through the petals changing colour. Head over to Team GG's blog to see some pictures of their amazing science investigations!

This week Team JF conducted their second investigation of the year to determine the best temperature to melt chocolate. Before we started our careful observations, we had lots of discussion around materials changing state and made our own sensible predictions. The children worked together to test each temperature, ensuring they were carrying out a fair test throughout! I have been very impressed with the scientific vocabulary the children have been using and I believe we have some true scientists amongst us! Science - Which materials are best in preventing sound from being heard?
Today, we conducted our first experiment in Science. We wrapped an egg shaker in different materials (tissue, hand paper towel, paper, fabric, tin foil and clingfilm) and recorded the sound of the egg shaker. We were testing which material was best in preventing the sound from being heard. We concluded that the worst material was the clingfilm and the best material was the paper due to the thickness of this. |
