Week beginning 12.2.24

Hello all,

A short but busy week in P4/5.

 

In ScienceĀ  we were learning about floating and sinking. We tested different items from our classroom by putting them in water and recorded the data. We then learned about the term buoyancy and used this knowledge to work as a team to design a boat which could hold as many marbles as possible before sinking. We then reviewed our designs to see what worked/didn’t work and how we could adapt our boats to hold more marbles.

 

We took time some timeĀ  to decode our Morse Code messages that we had written to one another last week. Some were very tricky to work out and others were quite funny! We even created our own written code for others to decipher.

 

In maths we spent some time collecting and analysing data as well as creating our own surveys.

 

Another wonderful week in P4/5
