Year 5 Exit Point!

In the last week of term Year 5 invited parents, brothers and sisters, teachers and Year 4 to come and share our learning. We gave the adults the chance to carry out our experiments and explained the science behind them!

Big Math Learning

In Big Maths we used our learning on ratio to create a new drink, we altered the amount of lemonade to the amount of juice, for example 2:3. Each part was measured carefully to 50ml and poured into a cup, then stirred and tasted.

Some of us decided that we liked a larger ratio of juice in our drink whereas others preferred the lemonade!

Here are some pictures to show us hard at work!

Irreversible Changes

This week in our science and IPC learning we were focussing on irreversible changes, we used borax and glue to create plastic and then used different strategies to stretch a curly wurly bar as long as possible!

It was great fun and we learnt the meaning of reversible and irreversible changes.

Making New Materials – Entry Point.

After baking in the morning we spent our afternoon creating a new material using cornflour, water and in Pearl Class food dye!

Have a go and discover what we did!

Year 5 – ‘Making New Materials’ in Literacy.

As part of our IPC topic, ‘Making New Materials’ and literacy learning, we followed instructions to bake buns!

Look at the amount of fun we had learning – they tasted delicious too!
