Year 5 - Crazy Combustion

Date: 29th Oct 2024 @ 8:08pm

This week the children in year 5 have begun their learning journey into the states of matter. In this lesson, pupils conducted an experiment to prove that combustion requires oxygen, and that more oxygen allows fires to burn longer. We also measured the mass of a candle as it was burning, which showed that the wax was the fuel, and was being used to create the flame.
