The weekly visits to the science room to extend our learning is a highlight for all the Year 2 children. The teachers work hard to find fun and relevant experiments to help children use their observation and thinking skills to further develop their understanding of scientific concepts.
This term the Year 2 children are learning all about light. The big idea is that light is energy that can travel from it’s source. The range of experiments chosen this term show learners how light can travel through some materials, bounce off some materials and why we have all the colours of the rainbow.
The Room 10 learners enjoyed experimenting with how light travels and whether or not it holds a certain shape. They were all very excited when they could make a heart shape on the piece of black paper.
