Today in class 6 we were learning about food chains. The children worked in collaborative groups to sort pictures to make food chains. It was lovely to see them all engaged in their learning.

As part of our new expedition we set up an experiment to see how different objects react to being submerged in water. We added tissues, a swim nappy, a plastic toy and a packet of crisp to bowls of water and will keep observing them over the next few weeks!

As part of our immersion we all made Jellyfish. The children were preserving parrots and concentrating crocodiles as some found the threading quite challenging.

Class 6 spent the first week of the spring term immersing themselves in our new expedition. They have worked very hard and I’m sure you’ll agree our classroom looks amazing!

We have been grappling with classification keys as part of our science case study. We have been hard working and resilient – we even managed to write some of our own!

We have been researching a range of different under the sea creatures this morning. We were we working collaboratively to create some anchor charts to help us with our non-chronological reports.

After an immersion week full of clues we found out our guiding question is ‘How will what I do today impact the World tomorrow” We began our learning by completing a knowledge dump of all the things we already know about sea creatures, recycling and anything else we think might be liked to our expedition. We also thought of some questions we would like to try and find out during our expedition.
