As part of our science unit we have been investigating and learning about habitats. We explored our school grounds to see the types of invertebrates that live here. We then set up a woodlice choice chamber to investigate whether woodlice prefer light or dark conditions and we seemed to get some very clear results!
Ralph's Wood Ramble
As part of our learning about plants, we visited Ralph's Wood. It made an interesting comparison to our geography topic of Rainforests. We went on a scavenger hunt, looked closely at minibeasts and collected leaves for leaf rubbings.
As part of our rainforest topic, Dragonflies have been learning about plants. . In science we have investigated the optimal conditions for growing; planting bean seeds in different locations and changing variables to see what happens to them. We have also dissected flowers to learn about the pollination process.
Dragonfly Footballers
Well done to our Dragonfly boys for representing East Brent at a recent Y3/4 Wessex Trust Interhouse football competition.
