Investigating Space

10/11/2020

🪐🌎 Yesterday afternoon we began our new topic in Science, ‘Space’. We used augmented reality cards to investigate planets and various other objects within our solar system! It was our first time using augmented reality and it was really interesting to see how the cards allowed us to see various items within space. 🌎🪐

Demi's Day

19/10/2020

Today, the 19th October, we are celebrating Demi's Birthday. Every hour we go outside on to the yard to listen and dance to her favourite songs. We were allowed to wear our own clothes.
Also, during our daily exercise we also played Demi's favourite songs.

Demi's Garden

19/10/2020

Last week we began planting for Demi's garden. We brought in bulbs to make a pretty flower garden since Demi died a year ago. It is her birthday coming up so we decided to make a beautiful flower garden to remember her.
First everyone brought in their own bulbs with all different colours to make a nice flower garden. Next, we got garden tools to make the beautiful special garden. Then we went to make a deep enough hole for two bulbs to fit in. Next step was to water them a little bit before we cover them with soil then we watered them a little bit on top to make them grow.

Air Resistance Experiment - Parachutes

15/10/2020

Yesterday, we completed our science experiment for air resistance. We dropped the 10cm, 20cm and the 30cm parachutes off the ramp in the yard to see which one was the slowest and which one was the fastest. We dropped each one three times to make it fair but sometimes the wind blew it away and we all laughed. At the end, we had a race with each one to see which one went the fastest and which one went the slowest, we found out that the 10cm one went the fastest and the 30cm one went the slowest. This was due to the 10cm having a smaller surface area, meaning it will have less air resistance and the 30cm having a bigger surface area, meaning there will be more air resistance.t the slowest.

Our Monthly Bleep Test

14/10/2020

Last week, the 7th October, Year 5/6 completed our monthly bleep test. This is a fitness test where two cones are set 20 metres apart and you have to make it to the other cone before the bleep. The bleeps get faster and faster as the levels get higher. We complete this test monthly are try and beat our score. We split into small groups to complete the test with Sir recording our scores on his iPad and the test being played through the large speaker.
