KLQ: How does air resistance work?
For science this week you are going to investigate which material makes a better parachute. You need to decide on 3 different materials (tissue,plastic,paper,cloth,wood) and create 3 parachutes.
Before you start you need to consider lots of things. Remember to set it out with subheadings. Please try to write in full sentences rather than ‘just answering the questions’. I have put a support sheet together please use this as a guide. Only write on it if you need to. Otherwise write it out in your workbooks using the same headings.
The title: What could a good title be? This could be what you are doing or a question.
Materials /equipment needed
What materials will you use? What punctuation do you need to use?
Prediction
Which parachute do you think is going to take the longest to fall? Why? Is it heavy/light?
Fair test
How are you going to ensure that it is the same? Think about the parachute, how it is thrown, what will change, what will stay the same?
Method
How will you take out the investigation? Think about the order, all the steps you will take. Can you use come sequencing adverbs and ‘bossy’ imperative verbs.
First, I will…
After that, next, finally.
Diagram
Draw your experiment. Remember to use a ruler and label your diagram.
Results
How will you record your results? In a chart/table? How many times with you throw them?
*Challenge* Can you draw a bar chart to show the times for each parachute. Think of the x and y axis and the division of time.
Conclusion
What have you found out? Why do you think it was those results?

KLQ: Animals have the same structure? Do you agree?
This science lesson is all about animals and the way they look. There are three levels. Level one is year 1 objectives. (year 2 can recap this) Level 2 is year 2 objectives (There is no reason why year 1 can do this either. Finally, Level 3 is an extension level again both year groups can access this. I would suggest you look through all PowerPoints to refresh your child’s learning.
Level 1.
Look through and discuss these animal parts.
Level 1 science PowerPoint.
Your first activity is too label the animals. You may wish to draw an animal of your choice on label it. The next activity is to create your own bizarre beast using the given body parts. Or create your own. You could cut up pictures of animal parts and stick them to create a college or simply draw your own. Remember to describe your creature and why you have given it those body parts.
Think about its habitat where might it live and why? How can it live? (does it have gills if is it under water?) How can it catch food?

Level 2.
Now we have recapped the animal structure we are going to look at comparing different animals and why they need these structures to survive.
Level 2 science
Your activity is to choose 3 animals and write a comparison about them. What body parts do they have the same? Why do they need that body part? What is their habitat? Do they eat the same food? Are the Omnivores?
Year 2 you can write an A4 page in class. Please try hard to extend your work and put in lots of information. Read it through does in make sense? Can you add more to it? Dojo points up for grabs.

Level 3
Let’s investigate inside your animals now. Your challenge is to choose an animal that you are interested then find a skeleton of it. Can you discuss where its legs, head, arms, ears may be?

KLQ:How many types of habitats are there?
We have looked at lots of local habitats now we are going to look at global habitats. Please use the information below to research a global habitat and create an information poster/fact file on your chosen habitat.

KLQ: Are there any food chains in your garden? If so what?
Your activity is to create your own food chains which could start in your garden. Use your knowledge from our lesson at school, the knowledge from the deep and your new knowledge about microhabitats.
Challenge 1: Create a 3 step food chain starting in your garden
Challenge 2: Create a 4 or more step food chain starting in your garden
Challenge 3 : Identify the producer, the primary consumer, the secondary consumer, the prey and her predator (remember some animals will have more than on label.
Guidence/ examples for parent support

KLQ: Do all minibeasts like living in the same microhabitat?
Your activity is to learn all about mini beasts and microhabitats using this powerpoint and then go in investigate microhabitats around your home using the microhabitat enquiry sheet (can be drawn in your learning books) and your minibeast survey (again can be drawn in book, you don't need the sheet) Finally, create a pictogram about your findings and write a conclusion to answer the KLQ : Do all minibeasts like living in the same microhabitat?
