🔬 Science Investigation in Marigold Class! 🚗

Marigold Class have been busy investigating different surfaces during our science lessons! We began by making predictions about what we thought would happen when a car travelled down a ramp onto different surfaces.

We then carried out our investigation, testing the car on a range of surfaces and carefully observing what happened.

We used scientific language to describe and explain our findings, thinking about how the different surfaces affected the movement of the car. We were fantastic scientists, making predictions, carrying out a fair test and recording our observations!

Rhodopis

In English, we have been developing our debating and oracy skills while exploring Rhodopis. We debated whether Rhodopis marrying the Pharaoh at the end of the story was a positive or negative outcome.

The children used their speaking and listening skills to share their opinions, provide reasons for their arguments, and respectfully agree and disagree with each other’s ideas. It was fantastic to see the children confidently expressing their viewpoints and responding thoughtfully to different perspectives!
