Yesterday and today as part of our new Science Case Study, the children were finding out about the different states of matter. They worked collaboratively to create posters on the differences between solids, liquids and gases. We enjoyed debating whether slime was a liquid or a gas. What do you think it is?

Kayden’s family have been doing some volunteer work and in return they were gifted with some brand new Winnie the Pooh books. Kayden generously brought in each friend in his class a copy of the book for them to take home and keep.
4L have absolutely loved reading this book today, they asked if they could start it during their accelerated reader time.
Thank you Kayden

Today we have started our Case Study 2 – “Why Does Matter Change State?” for our “Why is Sugar Not So Sweet” expedition.
After finding out what we already know about Solids, Liquids and Gases, we then conducted our first experiment , so that we could see how to structure a scientific report.
Our experiment question was: ” Does the size of sugar granules affect the speed that the sugar dissolves in water?”
We conducted fair tests with Demerara, Granulated and Icing Sugar, as well as sugar cubes.
We have loved being scientists this afternoon and we are really looking forward to developing our scientific investigation skills over the next few weeks!

Have you ever wondered which kind of sugar dissolves the fastest? Well today we carried out an experiment to find out. First we hypothesised then carried out a fair test and got some surprising results. Children have collaborated to carry out their experiments and looked at a scientific report which shows their results, learning lots of new language along the way. Do you know what matter, particles or states mean?

Today I could not be prouder of 3LS, they have been an absolute pleasure to take on our trip. Not only were they excited and engaged about their learning but their behaviour and manners have been impeccable. It was lovely to hear many members of the public commenting on how fantastic the children’s behaviour was.
I’m so pleased everyone had a great day learning about the links Brodsworth has to the slave trade and I’d like to thank all the adults that joined us and made our day so enjoyable!
