In geography, the children created fantastic coastline shoebox models, carefully adding labels to show key features such as cliffs, beaches, bays and headlands. They also explored how erosion and deposition shape our coasts over time. In science, we have been busy investigating forces. The children tested how different friction surfaces affect the speed of a toy car travelling down a ramp, making predictions, carrying out fair tests and recording their results.
