Science Week 29 January – 2 February 2024
Year 1 and 2:
Children attended the Mad Science Activities and took part in the science experiments and thoroughly enjoyed.
Children also learnt about Islam’s contribution toward science. They learnt about Abu Musa Jabir Ibn Hayyan the first Muslim scientist. They enjoyed doing experiments which he discovered. They watched educational videos and learnt the Islamic history around the importance of science and its contribution to our society.
Year 3 and 4
Children started science week with a ‘Stunning Start’ visit by The Mad Science Show. Children then sorted magnetic and non-magnetic materials into PE hoops and used magnets for the ‘Paper Clip Dance ‘. Children then took part in a Treasure Hunt and collected facts about Al Battani. They then wrote about Al Battani and his works. Our final experiment was making Lunar and Solar Eclipses.
Year 5 and 6
Children investigated various experiments including water resistance and air resistance. The children successfully created their own parachute and they also created science posters.
The Mad Science show came to our school as part of science week to do a science show based on the element of Air pressure for the children. The children enjoyed the show, and they were very excited to be part of it.
The next day, they had another amazing day of amazing costumes designed and made by the children to celebrate the end of Science week at Evergreen Primary.
