Week 24/25 (20/02/23 – 03/03/23)
In Science, we looked at the dispersion of white light through a prism and how the colours of light can be added, subtracted, absorbed and reflected. We also studied types of galaxies and what exactly asteroids are.

In Science, we completed our unit on forces and energy with a small test. We then began our unit on light by doing some light box experiments based around reflection and refraction.
In Science, we wrapped up our work on pressure in solids and moved on to pressure in liquids and gases in terms of particle theory. At the end of the week, the class learned about the diffusion of gases and…
In Science, students learned how to identify and calculate turning forces using the equation moment = force x distance. They were then introduced to the idea that pressure is caused by the action of a force, exerted on by a…
In Science, we continued to look at the relationship between speed, distance and time and students performed an experiment based on the topic. At the end of the week, we began working on distance graphs.
In Science, we started a physics unit on forces and motion. We looked at the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on motion and students began to calculate speed using the equation speed = distance / time.
In Science, the class learned about how purity is a way to determine how much of a specific chemical is in a mixture. They also learned the difference between climate and weather and about the Earth's climate cycles.
In Science, we began a unit on materials and cycles on Earth. The class learned that electrons have negative charge, protons have positive charge and neutrons have no charge. They also learned that the electrostatic attraction between positive and negative…
In Science, we began a unit on ecosystems. Students learned to identify different ecosystems on earth and recognise the variety of different habitats that exist within them. They also learned to describe how an invasive species can affect other organisms…
In week eight, we completed our work on solubility by learning about paper chromatography. Students did an experiment where they found the different substances in assorted inks and dyes. In week nine, we reviewed our work on the properties of…
