In Science we value and prioritise hands on learning. As part of this ethos we have specific Wow learning and enrichment activities. We have selected some of these to highlight below:

Wow Day/Enrichment: Y5 Science - Dissecting a Flower Wow Day

Introduction:

Year 5 had a Science ‘Wow’ session on 27th September 2021 linked to plants topic “living things and their habitats”.

What happened on our Wow Day

This week, Year 5 dived into the world of plant reproduction. On our Wow Day children observed and dissected lilies to truly identify the different parts of a flower and their role in plant reproduction. They then created a visually aesthetic, mobile display of our scientific exploration to show off our learning.

Take a look at us in action and our final mobile displays!

Skills we developed as part of this experience include Teamwork, observation skills and presentation skills.

We also made cross-curricular links with DT

We were also able to develop the School Values of independence and ambition!
