P7 Science

30th Jan 2026

Our 2 investigations this week required a range of science skills - planning, recording, designing, observing and making conclusions. Firstly, we looked at how time has been measured throughout history and then made a pendulum. We experimented to answer questions about time and weight. Then, each group had to design and create a vessel that would float and hold marbles. Some of the designs held up to 100 marbles and still floated!
