Year 2: Young Researchers' Conference

Today, we presented our findings to the Young Researchers' Conference at University College Birmingham.

Our research question was 'What rewards work at Chilcote Primary School?' We were a bit nervous standing up in front of so many people, but we received a huge round of applause at the end.

After lunch, we all enjoyed a spectacular science show from the fantastic teachers at Swanshurst School.

Mr. Setchell was very proud of us. We hope our findings will help Mrs. Doherty to decide what rewards will work best next year. Thank you to everyone who answered our questions when we were collecting our data.

Year 2: Young Researchers visit Professor Gary Thomas!

Note the empty biscuit plate!

The Great Hall was exactly that.

'Old Joe' is the nickname for
The Joseph Chamberlain Memorial Clock Tower. 

At Yardley Wood, they are using an online system called 'Class Dojo'
Your parents can see why you have earned rewards!

At Haslucks Green, they have tokens to get rewards.
The blue one is a milk bottle top for when you do something to save energy.

On the last two Friday afternoons, our Young Researchers team have been on interesting and informative trips.

To answer their research question 'What rewards work?', they wanted to visit local schools. So, they quizzed the fantastic and welcoming children at Haslucks Green and Yardley Wood on the rewards they had at their school.

This Friday, they met top research author Professor Gary Thomas at the University of Birmingham who was very generous with his time, advice and his impressive selection of biscuits!

They'll be asking you for your opinions on what rewards work soon!
