My favourite Science lesson We all know science is fun and full of practical investigations that make us want to learn more. There are so many lessons to highlight and it is impossible to choose just one that stands out, as the pupils are always so keen to share their findings and scientific knowledge. Here are some highlights across the year groups: Year 8 completing a practical on identifying the rate of diffusion and how this is affected by the temperature of the solvent. Year 7 creating rainbow racks to show how acid and alkalis can be neutralised, creating a PH scale of colours. Year 6 taking their learning to the rest of the school during their break-time, when studying continuous and discontinuous variation. They tested the variation of their peer’s arm length and hand span. Year 5 learning all about sound, proving it is created by movement and vibrations through different states of matter. Every week there is a new experiment to complete and every week the children are challenged using their scientific investigatory skills and knowledge. 8 | The Embassy 2019~20
