Together, we planned four locations and made sure the test was fair by giving each cup **exactly 50ml of water** and using identical cups. The children then placed the cups around the room, made predictions about which would evaporate the quickest, and will now monitor them over the next week to see what happens. Well done Y5! ### Investigating Evaporation [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8039.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8039.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8040.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8040.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8045.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8045.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8044.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8044.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8043.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8043.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8042.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8042.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8041.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/investigating-evaporation/IMG_8041.jpeg) [Year 5](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/year-5) [Science](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/science) [Science](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/citag/science) [KS2](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/citag/ks2) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/WhatsApp_Image_2026-01-08_at_19.32.01.jpeg)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-11-16-07-35-diwali) Previous ### [Diwali](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-11-16-07-35-diwali) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_8112.jpeg)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-11-17-09-20-year-5-insulator-or-conductor) Next ### [Year 5 - Insulator or Conductor?](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-11-17-09-20-year-5-insulator-or-conductor) ### School Life - [Brookside Blog ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog) - [News](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/news) - [Events](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/events) - [Photograph Galleries ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/photo-galleries) - [School Council](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/school-council) - [After-School Clubs ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/after-school-clubs) - [KIDZ Club](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/kidz-club) - [Calendar](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/calendar) - [Newsletters](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/information-for-parents/newsletters-2026-2027) - [Mental Health ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/mental-health) ##### Location Rostherne Avenue Great Sutton Cheshire CH66 2EE ##### Contact Us 0151 558 1123 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/brooksideprimary/) © Copyright 2014–2026 Brookside Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
