The strong winds kept Year 4 inside today during our outdoor learning session. We made carbon dioxide in a sealed bag, mixing sodium bicarbonate and vinegar together. It was fun watching the bag expand!

Read MoreActing out solids, liquids and gases
Published 25/11/25Beech Class in Year 4 have started their next block subject - SCIENCE: Changes in state
Today, we compared the different states: solids, liquids and gases.
The children practised being particles, moving between each state. They became one big solid, all tightly packed together, and only changed shape if a force was applied. They became a liquid by moving around more freely within the 'blue cup'. Finally, they became a gas by spreading out across the whole room.
Afterwards, we discussed many different objects and grouped them into each state. Good job, scientists! 👨🔬👩🔬
