In Year Three's science lessons, the children have been learning all about forces and the resistance of a variety of difference surfaces. They measured and monitored and recorded their findings. And, in Year Five, our young scientists have been thinking about dental hygiene and the the effect sugar and acid can have on their teeth (pictured bottom). Rather than experimenting on their own teeth, they used hard boiled eggs instead. It is so important for our children to actively run their own experiments to see how our world works. They learn about the theory, but putting this into  practise really helps deepen their understanding. Actions speak louder than words.
