Mould!

Class 4 have been growing mould! It's a bit gross, but we've been doing it for a reason. We were testing to see which area of the class room provided the best place for bread to stay fresh. Our results were slightly unexpected, so we're designing a new test to backup or disprove our previous results.

Minibeast Mania!!

In class 3 we have been doing a lot of work about Minibeasts and Habitats this half term. This has been taught mostly by Miss. Ward. It is her last day today, and to celebrate all our hard work, we were able to come to school dressed as a minibeast! A lot of work was put into our costumes (thank you parents!) and we all looked really great. We were able to show class 1 our costumes in more detail and tell them about the things which we had learned.
Thank you Miss. Ward for all your great Minibeast lessons!

Healthy Me

Our current Learning Connections topic in Class 3 is called 'Healthy Me'. We are learning all about what is inside our body and how it functions to keep us healthy. We have learned lots of yucky facts too. Did you know that if you laid all of the blood vessels in the human body from end to end, they would go twice around the earth! Yuk!

Class 3 Science - Rocks and Soils

In Class 3 this half term we have been learning about rocks and soils. We have learned about how different types of rocks are formed and how there is always rock underneath our feet, wherever you are on Earth! We have also made a tasty example of how sedimentary rocks are formed (using chocolate!)

Look at this link to study the anatomy of a volcano!
