Today we recapped what a plant needed to grow which is water, sunlight and nutrients from in soil. We planted 3 pots of cress seeds. We are going to investigate what happens if seeds have no water, if seeds have no light and if seeds have water and sunlight.
Beech class used data loggers to test what happened to the volume of buzzers when we added more batteries to our circuits.
Beech class worked together in small groups to investigate and compare the amount of sugar to be found in different drinks. We used the weighing skills to carefully measure out the grams of sugar to be found in each product. Some of the findings were quite surprising. We were surprised to find out that there was a lot of sugar in an Innocent Smoothie and Capri Sun.
Today In Birch class, we wanted to investigate the best material to use to make a coat for "Jack". We used tissue, tinfoil, paper and plastic. The children wrote a prediction about which material would work best. We then tested all the materials by pouring water on to a figure. We learnt that tissue and paper are not effective as the figure got wet and ripped and tin foil and plastic were the most effective as they are waterproof.
