An EGG-periment in progress…what’s this got to do with teeth?! @MissDacostaCTS @MrsMalhotraCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSscience

Today in Science we began exploring our new topic ‘Forces’. We started by investigating air resistance and seeing how changing the shape/ weight of our paper propellor effects the air resistance applied @MrsMalhotraCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

Willow Class were classifying things into "living", "once lived" and "non-living". It was interesting seeing where children grouped different things with reasoning behind their ideas!! 🐻🍃🤖 @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSScience

Science this half term has been very full on! We tried our hands at becoming cardiologists to replicate a beating heart! We used this hands-on experience to inspire our Circulatory System explanation texts!🤓🫀@CTS_Watford @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSScience

Demonstrating how the heart pumps oxygenated blood around the body ❤️ @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree @MissByrneCTS #CTSScience

Oh what a day! Year 5 had the best day exploring how humans change as they become elderly! I think we really enjoyed getting into character! #CTSScience @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree @MrsMalhotraCTS @MrLittleboyCTS

Willow Class have been learning about the importance of exercise and exploring the impact that it has on our body!! 🫀🫁🧠 @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSScience

Willow Class were categorising items that they "can live without" and "can't live without". It's great to see that they know what is important to survive in this world!! 🥘💧🌬🏠 @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSScience

Willow Class have been exploring what happens to an offspring when it grows into an adult. The children chose their own animals and made comparisons with their characteristics from them being offsprings to adults!! 🐥🐔 @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSScience

Creating dramatic lightning art in Science today ! ⚡️ #CTSscience @MrsMalhotraCTS @headcherrytree @Emma5Hills

Acorns @CTS_Watford have been waiting with excitement for our butterflies to appear. They watched a chrysalis moving yesterday and today we have 3 beautiful butterflies exploring their new surroundings. 🐛🦋 @headcherrytree @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSScience #CTSeyfs @hertsearlyyears

We even helped by pollinating the plants ourselves! 🐝 🐞 🌺 @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSscience

Today we set up a controlled experiment and made our predictions. We will be observing over time so ask us about it in a few weeks! 🪴 🌺 @MrsMalhotraCTS @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree #CTSscience

The parts of a plant and their functions…beautifully drawn @MrsMalhotraCTS @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree #CTSscience

Making careful observations of plants to see if they all have/show clearly the features we have learnt about #CTSscience @MrsMalhotraCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford

We had so much fun this afternoon creating rain clouds to start our weather topic! 🌧️ #CTSScience @MrsMalhotraCTS @Emma5Hills @headcherrytree

This week in science we were looking at plant reproduction! We were excited to spot asexual reproduction in real life with our strawberries, onions and potatoes! @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSScience

Understanding how the Peppered Moth evolved to survive the Industrial Revolution. When lichen covered trees became covered in smoke and soot, did the speckled or dark charcoal moths survive their predators? Natural selection at its best! @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

Today we investigated which surface reflects light most effectively. We learnt that light travels in straight lines and reflects off of all surfaces….the best surface being a shiny mirror! 🪞 #CTSscience @MrsMalhotraCTS @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree

An active Science session to understand how blood is pumped from the heart to the lungs to become oxygenated and then around the body via the circulatory system before going back to the heart to start the cycle over again @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree @MissByrneCTS #CTSScience

An exciting afternoon in Year 6 with our science resources creating complete circuits and investigating the effects of adding and removing components in an electrical circuit @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford @MissPenfoldCTS #CTSScience

The joys of teaching Science to your class as Science Lead and seeing the utter joy and excitement on their faces as they recreated the human digestive process. Their reactions were priceless! Learning for Life 🍒 #CTSScience @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford @MissByrneCTS

More STEM superstars in Oak class. The challenge was to design and create a toy or game using an electrical circuit. Such fab designs, even @headcherrytree had to come and play! @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

Today in Science, we began our Forces topic and exploring air resistance. We made propellers to measure the speed they took to drop to the floor and investigated if the smaller the surface area, the quicker they fall @MrsMalhotraCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

Today Year 5 investigated the phases of the moon! We modelled why the moon appears to change shape over the month and created some diagrams (that were very yummy!) 🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕 @MrsMalhotraCTS @MissButtCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

Who knew the digestive system could be so fun!? What a great interactive way to see how our bodies function every day! I’m sure Y6 can tell you all about it! @MrsMalhotraCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

Berries have loved watching the ducks swim. #ctsscience @MrsMalhotraCTS @CTS_Watford @headcherrytree #ctsearlyyears

Is there a doctor in the house? Using role play to explore how bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics and is able to mutate to survive. ##CTSScience @MissPenfoldCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford

Today in Science we were identifying the parts of a plants reproductive system! We then went on a wonder walk to see how many we could find around school 🌷 @MrsMalhotraCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford @Emma5Hills #CTSScience

The last couple of weeks Year 6 have been creating inventions which include an electrical circuit! It was particularly exciting to see these inventions beginning to come to life today! 👩‍🔬⚡️#CTSScience @MrsMalhotraCTS @CTS_Watford

Fantastic Science learning about some of our organs. We've learnt so many fascinating facts about some of our major organs @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

Raising our beats per minute with some exercise so we could measure our resting heart rates and then track our bpm's after exercising @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford @MissPenfoldCTS #CTSScience

An introduction to Evolution with @nowpressplay to kick start this term's Science learning all about Evolution, Inheritance and Adaptation @MissPenfoldCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

In Science, we’ve been exploring chemical and physical changes with a classic experiment - dropping Mentos into Coke! Just look at the children’s faces! 🤯🍒 @MrsMalhotraCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience

Another exciting day in Reception @CTS_Watford with 3 ducklings hatching and moving to their new home in the classroom. It has been lovely watching and listening to them.🦆 @headcherrytree @MrsGornallCTS @MrsMalhotraCTS #CTSScience #CTSeyfs @hertsearlyyears

I absolutely loved seeing this young man today. He took it upon himself to do the research on astronauts that his class will be doing next week in his absence as he sadly leaves us for a new school. Superstar! 🍒❤️ #AimHigh @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford @MissWatraCTS #CTSScience

For #BritishScienceWeek2024, year 6 investigated how microorganisms feed and grow, and observed how yeast reacts and grows over time when combined with flour and sugar @MissPenfoldCTS @headcherrytree @CTS_Watford #CTSScience
