Science in Year 5

Year 5 pupils have had their hands (and brains) full with Science in the first few days of school.

Our new topic ‘Forces’ has enabled the pupils to explore different ways in which forces affect us in life. They went around the classroom and found examples of various forces such as air resistance or friction and took pictures on ipads as evidence for their books. In another lesson, they used Newton Meters to measure weight of objects. In the lesson, they also learnt that weight is in fact measured in Newton whereas mass is measured in g or kg!
