Over the last few weeks, we have concluded our DAaRT programme. We have learnt about knife crime, solvent abuse and psychoactive substances. The children have written a final report about what they have learnt and how it will impact on their decision making as they grow up.
In Science, we have completed our Electricity unit and started our new unit on Light. The children were tasked with proving their hypothesis of ‘light travels in straight lines’. They were given paper and a torched and asked to come up with ideas to prove themselves correct. The children decided that if the light is shone through the holes, light will project onto the back wall. If one of the papers is moved the light will not reach the back wall and prove that light rays travel in straight lines.
