Hello everyone,

During this term we have been exploring the theme ‘In the Garden’ which links to our Term 1 Science content of Biological Sciences. We have been learning all about how living things grow, the needs of living things, identifying features of living things and their habitats.

Last week we planted our own plants and over the next few weeks we will be able to observe how they grow. We are also conducting an experiment to see what happens to a plant if it isn’t given any sunlight. We have put one plant in the sun and one in a cupboard and plan to observe and track their progress. To make the investigation a fair test we have kept the soil, the type of plant and amount of water they both get the same. This helps students to learn important science investigation skills such as; participate in guided investigations to explore and answer questions, use informal measurements to collect and record observations, use a range of methods to sort information, including drawings and provided tables and through discussion, compare observations with predictions.  

We love science in Room 25 and who knows, maybe one of us is the next Albert Einstien or Marie Curie!

Kind Regards,

Miss Mills
