British Science Week 2024 - Juniors
British Science Week 2024
The 8th - 17h March 2024 is British Science Week; a celebration of science, technology, engineering and maths. This year’s science week theme is ‘Time’ and we will be following this theme by exploring time in different contexts, through stories and videos, taking part in investigations and learning from experts.
Competition Time!
As well as celebrating Science Week through activities at school, we are holding a competition for you to enjoy as a family at home. We would like you to create a poster linked to the theme of ‘Time.’ Here are some ideas to get you going:
- Think about your own time – how do you spend it? At home, playing outside, arts and crafts, learning at school?
- What about time in the world, and beyond? What do you notice about how things change over time?
- How is time measured? Think about seconds, minutes, hours, days, years, the seasons, centuries.
- Do you know of any scientists whose work relates to time? Or have you read any books or seen any films about time?
Once you’ve done your thinking, it’s time to create your poster! You can use pop up pictures, tabs and flaps and use any materials you like. It can be 2D or 3D.
You can bring your completed project into school, or if you prefer, you can use Seesaw to upload your work.
Please hand in your completed project by Friday the 19th April. Prizes will be awarded for the most creative projects.
We look forward to seeing your entries!
