This morning all of the Reception children became Glaciologists and investigated melting ice. Why not try our NUSTEM melting ice activity at home?
This afternoon, Reception children took a trip to Mars with Little E the robot rover from the book “Are we nearly there yet?”. When they got there they designed the Mars landscape and built Mars rover vehicles to explore this new world. For more information about the robots in “Are we nearly there yet?”, more books about space and for activities for you to try at home, click here.
Today the other Year 6 class came into our Think Lab at Northumbria University to become cryptographers. This involved encrypting and decrypting messages and discovering how this keeps us safe online.
For more information about careers which use cryptography, activities you can try at home and a secret message to decode from NUSTEM, click here.
