British Science Week is a ten-day celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths that took place between 8 – 17 March 2024. This year, the theme was ‘TIME‘.
All year groups took part in daily science missions inked to one of the five different methods of scientific enquiry.
- Research using secondary sources.
- Comparative and fair testing.
- Observing over time.
- Pattern seeking.
- Identifying, classifying and grouping.
The children joined a daily virtual celebration at the end of the day to see what other schools involved had been up to and to celebrate their achievements of the day. What a great week we all had!
