Back by popular demand! Can we help Santa get ready for his round the world journey? Come and join Tom Holloway from the Primary Science Teaching Trust as he leads us through a fun packed day of experiments. Thursday 12th December 2024 In these morning online sessions, pupils will explore: EYFS and KS1: The reindeers' noses get too cold when they’re pulling Santa’s sleigh. We need to make them some nose warmers. Which material should we use? Could you make something to go on the tips of their antlers too? Y3/4: Santa mustn’t wake up sleeping children, but his shoes keep making noisy footsteps. How can you help him by muffling the sound? How would you change the shoe covering depending on where he is in the world? Y5/6: Santa’s getting old and he’s finding it hard to carry presents down chimneys. Would a pulley help him? How can you make the pulley as quiet as possible? All the experiments will allow pupils in both key stages and those in EYFS to developing the skills of observing over time, pattern seeking, fair testing, exploring and problem solving. In the afternoon pupils will share their findings with other pupils in schools across the South West. As part of the morning decision making process, they will need to decide the best way to communicate back their scientific findings to others. This may be through digital photos, PowerPoint, excel, graphs, posters, letters, oral presentation or any other means they decide.
