New science topic

Our topic for the rest of the term is investigating different types of MATERIALS. What are the properties of materials? Which ones are good for different jobs? Can we substitute one material for another? What are the advantages / disadvantages of different materials? Where do materials come from?

Thank-you all for your cooperation with the plants topic. Many children brought plants to school, or said they were growing plants at home. The children enjoyed the topic, and went to check the plants in our classroom as soon as we went through the door in the morning! Each group was in charge of a plant experiment. We learnt about plants and what they need to grow well, but also, just as important, we learnt how to conduct an experiment correctly. We have even started some new experiments, which will continue until the end of the term!

Special thanks to Domingo. The lettuce and tomato plants are growing well!
