Scientific Enquiry

There is a buzz of scientific themed excitement in Years 3 - 6 this morning!  Over the course of this half-term, children are working in teams to develop their understanding of the 5 scientific enquiry skills (Research, Classification, Fair testing, Observing over time and Pattern finding).  Each member of the team has a specific role to play, for instance Equipment Officer, Presentation Manager, Project Director, Photographer, etc.

At this stage, each team has decided on the theme of their Science project (plants, micro-organisms, electricity, etc.) and are now conducting research, using the ipads, to see what equipment/resources they will require to carry out their investigations.  We will keep you updated with their progress!
