Science

We investigated how surface area determines the impact of air resistance on an object. 

Visitors

We were visited by two local firefighters who held a workshop on how to stay safe - especially around the time of bonfires and fireworks.

Investigation

We investigated whether the shape of an object impacted how it moved through water. We were set the challenge to work scientifically to decide which variable was changing and which variables had to stay the same. We also thought about how to collect our findings and record them to share with other scientists.

History

We examined why Britain chose to go back to war only decades after fighting in a horrendous battle. We learnt that some leaders attempted to appease Adolf Hitler whilst others wanted to use force to stop him. After a healthy debate, we held a democratic vote - deciding Hitler, who behaved like a bully, needed to be stopped. 

English- Letters to the Lighthouse

We acted in role as characters from Letters to the Lighthouse to complete a radio interview. We used inference skills to decide how the characters were feeling and what their 'real' motives were.
