Pallet is an online notice board, so you can 'pin' all sorts of useful information and ideas on it. I use it as a way to share really interesting information with you.

This padlet is packed with information linked to our Science Dual Language Unit 1 - about sight, light and colour.

You can move left and right and up and down to explore all the columns of information I have pinned here for you.

If a video doesn't load you can press download (downward arrow), go to the website to watch it on the link provided or ask your teacher to renew the link.

If you have been absent or need to reference documents used in class you can also find it here under the weekly  column.

If you feel like a challenge and want to extend your learning try the Challenge column.

Now go explore and grow your brain !]]> 2018-09-23 14:46:24 UTC https://padlet.com/feig/visual_systems/wish/284751639 meriel_rhodes1 https://padlet.com/feig/visual_systems/wish/284752090 FAIR TESTING
Introducing and exploring the idea of 'fair testing'.
Group Activities:
Races in the playground
The tennis ball drop
Independent learning:
Using a set format to write up the results of the tests.
Reflection:
Discussion / lessons learned
What would you do differently & why?]]> 2018-09-23 14:49:07 UTC https://padlet.com/feig/visual_systems/wish/284752090 meriel_rhodes1 https://padlet.com/feig/visual_systems/wish/284752859 MAKING CONNECTIONS
Why are light and colour important to sight?
Group Activities:
Draw a partner's eye and label the diagram with all the information you can.
Scavenger hunt outside for materials with different properties
Independent learning:
Eyewitness sight video - Listening & note taking on the parts & functions of the eye in different species
Reflection:
Discussion - do all species have the same sensory ability? What factors affect our sight? What is the structure of the human eye and what function do these parts have? Can you add more to your eye diagram now? What is special about the way we see? Which scientist showed that light could be split into the colours of a spectrum?
