Experiments!

  In Science we conducted an experiment about insulators and conductors. Hypothesis: we made predictions about what materials we thought would keep the water hot. Equipment:  cup hot water thermometer fabric paper cardboard jumpers Fair Test: we kept the cup, thermometer and the amount of water the same! Method: Wrap the cup in our variable material Fill with hot water Start the timer and take the beginning temperature Take the temperature after 1, 2 and 5 minutes Note down our findings Repeat with a new material

Computing

  In Computing we are working on our coding skills. The children have been making circuits that can light up a bulb and spin a wheel. Over the next few weeks we are hoping to make some more complicated codes!

Self Portraits

Image
  This half term in Art we have been creating self-portraits. We have practiced making backgrounds that reflect our individuality, so we considered colours and textures that would help to show a bit of our personalities.  We got very messy with paint, glitter, tissue paper and feathers! We used black and white and coloured pictures of ourselves to build up our portraits. The children were very expressive and creative and very proud of their work!
