Science

In Key Stage 1 the science curriculum aims to be as practical as possible. The curriculum was reviewed in 2016-17 with Rising Stars Switched on to Science introduced. It is taught as a stand-alone subject with as many cross curricular links being made as possible. This is a development from the EYFS when the children learn about their world in many practical, play situations. The children learn about how to work scientifically including asking and answering questions, observing, using simple scientific equipment, identifying and classifying and gathering data. They also learn about plants, animals (including humans), materials and seasonal changes.

• Science Challenges such as making shadow puppets and exploring with them will be sent out each term. 

We will be learning about a  different Scientist each Term. How much can you find out about them at home?
