Week 5, we have now started our rounders unit in P.E. This week we practiced the skills throwing, catching and caging whether there is enough time to run again for a rounder. In science, we have explored the the circulatory system and digestive system. We learned that the heart has 2 circuits, carrying oxygenated blood back to the heart to pump to rest of the body and deoxygenated travels to the heart to be pumped to the lungs. We then further explored how oxygen and nutrients transfers by diffusion and osmosis. We used skittles to highlight diffusion and gummy bears in concentrated liquid to physically show how it expands and shrinks during osmosis. Finally, we finished our week with having fun on the inflatables!
Week 4, well done Racoons - so proud of all your hard work and effort this week during SATs! Let the treats begin! We had a picnic at the Discovery Centre followed by an ice-cream and Friday was a non- uniform day and we watched a film with popcorn.
