Stem Hub Space Session
Science - Moon and Mars Live Interactive Space Lesson
Super seeds
In our Science today we looked in the school grounds to see which plants were growing and where.
We also examined a range of fruits and vegetables to see what we could see and were amazed to see the seeds contained inside- we have set ourselves a challenge to try to grow some ourselves!
Which house is the strongest?
Today in Science we have been making houses for The Three Little Pigs from sticks, straw and Lego to see which is the strongest material so that the Big Bad Wolf cannot blow them down!
Materials and their uses
We continued our work on materials in our Science sessions this week.
Unfortunately Cross Fell were not impressed by Mrs Brown's new inventions and were very quick to point out why they thought that a glass hammer, chocolate tea pot and cardboard shoes were not going to make her rich and famous…
Materials fun in Cross Fell
Cross Fell are really enjoying their new topic- materials. We have been adding to our working wall each lesson building our knowledge and understanding of the topic. It has been wonderful to see everyone getting to grips with our key vocabulary that we are adding each session and accessing the…

Middle Fell have had a marvellous time hunting for and classifying invertebrates in our local area today
World Science day 2023
It is world Science day today and so to mark the occasion each of the classes really enjoyed taking part in some experiments to get us excited about our Science learning in school.
Cross Fell were really excited by their experiment as you can see!
Inspirational science in action!
We had the privilege of having a special guest in school today!
Miss B came to spend the day with us discussing routes into STEM jobs, the important work currently being undertaken by Scientists and to offer us an insight into life as a woman in STEM. We made sure that time was also made to…
Using our senses- crisp experiment! What flavour crisps do you have?
We continued our work on the senses in science today looking at how we use our sense of taste.
We carried out an experiment to determine whether we can tell the flavour of crisp from taste alone.
We tested 3 different flavours, thinking about how the crisps tasted and talked to our…
