A few snaps from our science experiment on casting shadows. We are tasked with setting up a fair test before measuring and recording our results. After this we turned our data into a line graph to show our results.
Creating the wattle and daub for our Tudor houses using modroc. We’re really excited to see how these turn out. Ask us about our design and what we plan to include in our traditional Tudor homes.
Workout! Children from the Merlins class working hard during our HIIT session. Please ask us what our favourite exercises are. I’m not sure many would say burpees!
Investigating and researching how we see colour in science. Our minds were well and truly blown by lots of the concepts we learned today. Ask us about this to see what we can remember.
As part of our work on the Tudors, we have started by developing our understanding of chronology and where the Tudors fit within British history. Test us out and see if we can remember the order of the different periods through British history.
Just a selection of some of the Merlins sketches of Tudor houses. We used view finders to focus in on features we found interesting before labelling the common features of Tudor housing.
A great time to shine all about rocks from Olivia. We were lucky enough to investigate some of the rocks from her collection, including fool’s gold and quartz. The class had lots of questions about the presentation and we found that lots of children in the Merlins share this geological Read more…
This week, while the year 5 were away swimming, the year 6s worked through some of their practice SATs papers, looking for any additional marks they could have picked up and identifying areas for improvements they would like to make in coming weeks. We looked at maths as well as Read more…
Creating our own science experiments to prove that light travels in straight lines.
A very interesting time to shine from Daisy about how she looks after her calves.
