Scientific Enquiry
Throughout the year, we will be using a practical approach to learning, completing investigations and experiements to answer scientific questions. We will be developing our understanding of the five enquiry types which will help us acquire new knowledge.
Working Scientifically
Alongside the five scientific enquiries, we will continue to develop our working scientifically skills. These skills help us to understand the processess which make up an enquiry.
