Pupils have been learning about bacteria and germs and participated in an experiment to assess the effects of a variety of conditions on bacteria growth. Underpinning this experiment was the importance of washing your hands. They used bread as a visual stimulus for this experiment.
Children will monitor and record the difference in bacteria growth over the next two weeks.
P6a share their knowledge and skills with P1 on Friday when they helped them design and create 3D shapes and structures from Kapla. They worked together to help the infants problem solve, create and adapt their designs. There was a fantastic sharing of mathematical and engineering language.
