Homework Offered
Each week, learners will complete an activity together in class as we explore the wonderful world of science together.  They will also be given a factfile page to print off which can gradually build up into a science encyclopaedia of knowledge as well as a sticker to celebrate what they have learnt that lesson.  There is also an optional extra activity that can be completed at home to consolidate their learning.
