This Term Year 6 are exploring the Inquiry question, ‘How can energy be generated and transformed.’ We are developing our understanding of these concepts through experiments and recording in scientific reports. This week we investigated Colour and Light, asking the question, ‘Do some colours absorb heat more than others?’

We hypothesised that dark would absorb more heat than light colours e.g. blue more than yellow. Unfortunately due to the weather we didn’t get the expected results because the sun wasn’t out and it was quite cold. We wrote scientific reports including features such as; Hypothesis (what do we predict will happen) and Observations (what did we see during the experiment). Over the term we are looking forward to investigating more about energy and doing more experiments to develop our understanding.
