Light

Shiny spoons

When you look into the back of a spoon your reflection is upside down. Why is that? Why do your eyes see it this way? Present your findings in any way you wish.

Shadow show

Make shadow puppets which could be used to tell stories.

Light snaps

Take some photographs which show/use light in an interesting way. (This could be natural or artificial light)

Living Things

Write a short description of the features of the different groups of animals. Then, sort the animals into the correct groups. Use a classification key, and/or the internet to help you. https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/zxjj6sg/articles/z9cbcwx
Visit the Natural History Museum online - https://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit/galleries-and-museum-map.html

Evolution and Inheritance

Make a poster about Charles Darwin and his life.
Look at inheritance in your family, can you find some old family photos to compare? You could look at – eye colour, hair colour, ear lobes being attached, are you double jointed or not?
Imagine how different the world would be if the dinosaurs weren’t extinct – write a story about what could happen.
