12 Oct Year 3 are rocking science!
In Science, Year 3’s topic is Rocks. We have been thoroughly enjoying being scientists – we have been predicting, investigating, observing and drawing conclusions. This week, we have been learning about soil and how important it is to support life. Today, we made observations about what we could see in the soil we looked at. Then, we classified what we found into different groups – what is alive, what has been alive and what has never been alive. Following that, we made predictions about what would happen when we mixed the soil with water. Finally, we mixed the soil with water and observed what happened. We have left our mixtures on the windowsill in our classroom and will make observations when we come into school again. What a great science lesson.
