Year 5: Spring Term
EID MUBARAK 🌟✨🌙 Today, the children learnt all about Eid and then created an Eid card using their amazing art skills. First, the children created a watercolour wash of the night sky and then used oil pastels to create the moon and a cityscape! @Miss_Atkinson4 @FallaParkSchool pic.twitter.com/Zyge0SOzh2

SCIENCE WEEK 👨🔬🧑🔬👩🔬 We explored which coins are magnetic and became thoroughly confused as some 5ps and 10ps were magnetic and some weren’t. We learnt that they have changed the material they are made of so now more coins are magnetic! @ScienceWeekUK @FallaParkSchool @Mrs_Crellin pic.twitter.com/zgrkIoE4tn

We have been working hard as engineers to ensure our trains moved forward and backwards. After testing, we realised how important it was to have parallel axels (or else our trains wouldn’t move in a straight line!)@FallaParkSchool @Mrs_Crellin @Miss_Carr_Falla @primaryengineer pic.twitter.com/u9YTQw2JjH
