Science Week
This week, all year groups at Yattendon have been highlighting their science learning. In addition to carrying out investigations that would normally be included in our curriculum, we have also had some special visitors. Year 6 and Year 4 had visitors from SATRO with Year 6 learning how to code mini lunar buggies and year 4 learning how to use quadrats to carry out scientific fieldwork. Year 4 also learned the difference between artisitic drawings and scientific drawings. Year 6 pupils said that they had great fun coding the buggies because you could be really creative and then watch the results. Year 5 were visited by Kingston University’s ‘Lab in a Lorry’, an outreach programme that aims to help pupils develop their understanding of forces. With Year 3 visiting Wakehurst Place to learn more about plants, every year group has had something to help them celebrate our science week. Don’t forget, you still have time to send in your pictures for the Science Snaps competition!
