This week Year 3 have been exploring capacity and volume. We have been converting millilitres into litres and litres into millilitres. We then filled our own containers and compared the volume of each.
This week, year 5 have been learning about gestation in humans. They then used the computers to work scientifically and hypothesise, compare and evaluate the gestation period of animals. They investigated if there was any link between the animals size and its gestation period, it’s average number of babies per pregnancy and it’s life spam.

Today we worked on a Salford art project. We took part in ‘The Paper Party’. We looked at and discussed ‘What our gift to Salford’ would be. We discussed, people we could help, places we could make better and how we could make Salford a really great place. The inside of our boxes we wrote words and pictures about what our gift to Salford be. The outside had repeated patterns of our favourite things. These will be displayed in Salford Art Museum. Come and see.
