Some amazing colours created today from one group in 9H! A mini pH scale!

[Dwr-Y-Felin Science @ScienceDYF]

9H did a fantastic job at creating the pH scale by combining acid and alkali in different volumes. Great problem solving skills! Da iawn pawb! 🧪🥼🧪

7T’s diffusion experiment in action!

[Dwr-Y-Felin Science @ScienceDYF]

7T were investigating how diffusion worked by using Skittles and warm water! Da iawn pawb! 🌈🥼🧪

Today, Year 11 were investigating which type of fuel produced the most energy. They carefully collected all the scientific data they needed before carrying out their calculations and making their decision. Da iawn pawb! 🔥🔥🔥

7C were investigating invisible magnetic fields today. They used iron filings to discover the hidden forces and were able to draw what they discovered. Da iawn 🧲🧲🧲🧲

8H enjoyed making balloon rockets last week. They investigated how changing the diameter of their balloons altered the distance they travelled. Their mission…to reach the moon (X) 🚀🚀🚀🌛🌛🌛

What a fantastic set of specialised cell models from Mrs Lavery’s Year 7 class. Amazing creativity and effort! Da iawn pawb 🧫🧬🧫🧬

[Dwr-Y-Felin Science @ScienceDYF]

Year 9 enjoyed carrying out a heart dissection with Mrs Lavery as part of their Circulatory System topic. Great dissection skills demonstrated in the lesson 🫀🫀🫀
