Bedford Drive Science

What a fantastic live lesson, learning about the Antarctic and what ice can reveal about the past! Thank you @BAS_News for a fun and informative session! @hiimpactconsult @BedfordScience1 #FrozenInTime

Year 6 have been working really hard in science. We have been learning about Carl Linnaeus and his classification system as part of our classifying organisms unit. 🔍📚 @BedfordScience1 @ScienceBedford

We started our 'Eating and Digestion' topic in Science this week. After defining what a carnivore, herbivore and omnivore is, we classified and sorted animals into a venn diagram. @BedfordScience1

Science @BedfordScience1 @Year3_Bedford enjoyed learning about rocks through scientific investigations with @hiimpactsarah and @hiimpactjo 🔍🔦

Year 6 had a brilliant science lesson exploring the circulatory system. They began by looking at heart rate and measuring their pulse, before observing a lung dissection and conducting their own heart dissection. @BedfordScience1 @hiimpactDave

Science Y1 enjoyed looking for examples of different materials in our class. We learnt the names of common materials @BedfordScience1

We have started our ‘Living in Environments’ topic this week in Science as we learnt about different habitats and what lives there whilst working collaboratively. @BedfordScience1

Science In our next lesson, we distinguished between an object and the material that it is made from. The children worked hard to find examples of objects. We found wooden tables, metal bowls and plastic bottles. What else can you find at home? @BedfordScience1

Year 6 had a brilliant afternoon yesterday exploring the classification of plants. We were able to identify a range of non-vascular and vascular plants on our playground and in the outdoor learning area. 🌱🌳🌿🔍 @BedfordScience1 @ScienceBedford

Science What a super Science lesson we had this week! It matched our wonderful wet weather perfectly🌧☔️ Year 1 had great fun investigating which material would make a good umbrella ☂ @BedfordScience1

Year 6 have spent today being historians, writing letters as evacuated children. We have also completed research into the role of women in the war and finally, analysed the use of propaganda in war time @history2bedford @Bedford_Drive 🔎

Amazing work year 5!

Science @BedfordScience1 @Bedford_Drive We have loved our science experiments today! What happens to materials when they are heated and cooled? We performed a simple test to find out! 👩🏼‍🔬👨🏾‍🔬

Science @BedfordScience1 @Bedford_Drive Which materials will best protect Humpty Dumpty? We worked in teams with everyday materials to see which would best protect Humpty Dumpty when he fell...🥚🍳

What fantastic work you are doing Year 1! Keep it up!

Science @BedfordScience1 @Bedford_Drive We loved testing out the materials to see which would best protect Humpty Dumpty 🥚🍳

Fantastic work year 5! This looks really exciting 🧫
