    Working as a Scientist 

    4 March 2026 (by admin)

    Science lessons for Voyagers and Discoverers this half term are all about scientific thinking. 

    In our first lesson, everyone discovered how scientists and engineers considered the best surfaces for road safety. We investigated which surface was the least slippery by using our skills of observation, noticing patterns, running comparative tests and recording results using a Newton force meter.  What fantastic scientific thinking you demonstrated Years 3 and 4! We are now looking forward to learning more about the work of famous scientific individuals and how scientists think and operate, especially in our upcoming British Science Week!
