Amazing Artwork!

Deforestation debaters
Year 5 have a real flair for debate! They were extremely persuasive, expressive and engaging. I was beaming with pride for every single one of them.

Co-ordinate hunting
The children have been finding hidden pictures around the school grounds, marking their position and finding their six-figure grid reference. It was lovely in the sunshine!

Earth Day Gardening
Year 5 enjoyed spending time outside planting sunflower seeds on World Earth Day. We are going to look after them, watch them grow and plant them in our garden. We experimented by placing lots of seeds in one and less in another as the children wondered which would grow best.

Earth Day arts and crafts
Year 5 used unwanted plastics from home to put them to better use - art! They worked together to create different Earth's after learning about greenhouse gasses and global warming. Which would you rather live in?

The Trojan War came to the Year 5 clasroom!
Year 5 have really enjoyed our history topic on Ancient Greece so to end the topic we did a drama and freeze frames of the events of the Trojan War! They were really in the spirit of their roles as I am sure you can tell.

Does the liquid affect how the iron nail rusts?
In science, the children have been discovering the properties of iron. As well as discovering it is the main magnetic metal, the children discovered it is a metal which rusts very badly. With our science heads on, we want to know what makes iron rust so badly!

Alien Soup!
Alien Soup has been delivered to Class 5, and we wanted to work out what it was made of. We used the scientific methods we'd learnt about to separate the materials to their original forms. The flour in some children's soup was unfortunately not a reversible change!
