Plastic Bottles!

Please could you save any large (1.5/2 Litre) plastic bottles that you may have at home! We will be needing some (60+!!) for art lessons over the coming weeks! This is the size we are looking for...

Thanks!

Wheels Day! - Science

Year 5 have had a fantastic day learning about friction, gravity and air resistance as part of wheels day! The children enjoyed experimenting with their own sets of wheels and were all very well behaved!

Super Science - Friction

Today we have investigated the effect friction has on moving objects. Is jelly harder to pick up with chopsticks if it is covered in oil (when there is less friction)?

Who has the stickiest shoe? Which shoe has the most frictional force acting on it?
