On Tuesday last week the children loved taking part in the great science share.
First we had an assembly, where we talked about how scientists ask questions, investigate them and share what they find out. Next, the Year 3 class came to our classroom where we told them the question to our investigation, ‘Is it easy to clean up the ocean?’ We read the book ‘Little Turtle and the Sea’ that had inspired us with our question and shared some pictures of us having a go at cleaning our pretend ocean.
Then it was the Year 3s turn. They told us about their question ‘How much air pollution is there around our school?’ and showed us some soot catchers. The reception children helped to record the results by drawing the soot from the different locations onto big pieces of paper.
It was lovely to see the older and younger children working so well together. Pictures to follow tomorrow.
