This half term our focus in Science is Rocks. Year 3 have been working collaboratively to explore the appearance and properties of a range of rock samples.

After making detailed and systematic observations and using their every growing scientific vocabulary to describe the samples, the first experiment involved making a prediction about which rock would be the hardest. Year 3 discussed how they would find this out and decided that a fair test would be necessary.

Please talk to Year 3 to find out more about a fair test and also the results of their enquiry. Next week Year 3 will be performing the water test with their rock samples.
