We are Scientists!
Today in Crew Chapman, we have been testing materials to see if they are soluable or insoluable. We were surprised to find out that pepper does not dissolve. Iāve seen great collaborative work and discussions today. Well done Crew Chapman.

Tilting at pinwheels.
Year 5 and 6 have been investigating how change of state can make things move. For this the staff used water that was heated to create steam, this steam then moved the pin wheel toy. We also discussed how the steam could then be condensed so the water could be reused.#LovePlover
We are Scientists!
As Scientists, we have been trying to separate salt from water and sand from water. We used filtering and distillation.

Jelly babies and Maths
Today as Mathematicians we have been using jelly babies to understand ratio. We gave the ratio of colour to colour and then worked out total amounts. I was impressed how quickly the children grappled with this new concept.
