Y1 Science: Keeping Paddington dry

Back to News

20th Mar 2021

Today the children carried out a science investigation to help Paddington find the most suitable material with which to make a new umbrella.

The children helped decide the scientific question about what we wanted to find out, and then considered how they could go about this.

We made predictions, planned a test that was fair, before carrying it out collaboratively. The children then drew their own conclusions from their observations.
