Year 6: How did you classify the sweets you used in Science?

The children loved using sweets to create their own identification key in Science. They had to sort them according to whatever criteria they chose and then ask a series of 'Yes, or 'No' questions to split them further. Finally, each sweet would have its own criteria to ensure identification was accurate. As we also learnt about microorganisms this week, as a way of classifying living things, no sweets were eaten in the process!
