Dragons - Parachute Investigation

21 September 2026 (by Mr Scott (meerkats))

We worked collaboratively to investigate air resistance.

In our Science lesson last week, Year 5 explored the force of air resistance. Working in small groups we investigated whether the shape, size and length of string on a parachute would affect how long it took to fall. Click on the link below to see some photos of our super science:

A date for your diary - in our current Big Question lessons we are learning about the ancient Greeks. On Thursday 22nd October we will be having an Ancient Greek Day of fun lessons based on our Big Question, including trying some Greek food. If they wish, pupils can come into school dressed ancient Greek style or wear white and blue (the colours of the Greek flag).
