P7s Photosynthesis

On Friday P7s used the creative enquiry room to demonstrate their learning on photosynthesis. They create models of a flower using crafts that showed the different parts of a flower. They also created a diagram showing and explaining the photosynthesis cycle. Finally the pupils set up an experiment that aims to show the effects of sunlight on plant growth and will monitor the results over the coming weeks. Hopefully by the end we will have a nice crop of coriander!

 

Natural Disasters P7A and P7B

This week in the Creative Enquiry Room P7a and P7b took part in experiments that helped demonstrate the causes and impacts of different Natural Disasters. The focus of the experiments was Earthquakes, Tornados and Tsunamis. P7 were able to show the process of liquification that occurs during some Earthquakes. They were also able to describe what causes a Tornado to form and what causes Tsunamis and the impact they have on coastal areas around the world.

P7A stem challenge

This week P7A learned about our solar system and the planets. They also learned how to create scale models through their maths learning. Using this knowledge P7A pupils were able to create scale drawings of the planets and including their distance from the sun. The pupils managed to use their knowledge of division and measure to create accurate scale drawings. Very well done!
