To begin with, we put our own personal opinions aside and researched both sides of the argument. Looking at the reasons why people think …
Falcons took part in a live science lesson today. We learnt all about carrots and how important a functioning ecosystem is for things to grow (including the “ewww, creepy” nematodes).
Today, Woodpeckers have spent the afternoon creating dichotomous keys, using liquorice allsorts, for their new science topic: Living Things and their Habitats. To begin with, we discussed what a dichotomous key is and if we had ever seen or used one before. Then, we looked at some examples that classified fruit, sweets and animals. As …
