    New Mathletics tasks have been added for those who have completed their previous quests.

    Science Week 9th-13th March

    This year's theme is 'Curiosity - what's your question?' and we would like everyone to get involved by investigating a question they would like to know the answer to. Here are some ideas but you can investigate any of your own questions:

    • Do right-handed people clean the teeth on the left side better than the right?

    • Are bigger snails faster?

    • Which leaf is the heaviest? 

    • Can 7-year olds run faster than 6-year olds?

    • How long does it take for a grape to turn into a raisin?

    • Which sense is more effective - taste or smell?

    • Which chocolate melts the quickest?

    • Which fizzy drink freezes the quickest? 

    • What material would make a good parachute for Batman?

    • How much water is needed to make the wobbliest jelly?

    • Can you make bubbles different colours?

    • Which fruits will float?

    • Which tennis ball goes further – a wet one or a dry one?

    You can choose how you want to present and share your findings, for example photos, drawings, written, typed or even a PowerPoint. Please bring your findings on Monday 9th March and we look forward to hearing what you investigated!
