Table: A tidy way to set out results in rows and columns.
Label: A short piece of writing that tells what numbers, pictures, or columns mean.

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

How should KS1 children record science results?

KS1 children can record results using simple tables, tally marks, pictures, or short sentences so that anyone can see clearly what happened in their investigation.

Why is it important to write the date and time in investigations?

Writing the date and time shows exactly when observations were made, which helps compare changes over days or weeks and makes results more reliable.

What makes a good results table for KS1 science?

A good KS1 results table has a clear title, labelled columns or rows, neat writing or numbers, and enough space so results are easy to read.
