Funtington extended their skills in using microscopes, staining onion skin to be able to see the onion cells and working on drawing accurately. The theme of the afternoon was magnification. The students moved onto maths to work on scaling objects by factors. They linked the learning by comparative sizes. The next session in Minecraft Education allowed them to work in a virtual world again using relative size and extending their coding skills, interacting with NPC’s in the world.
