opaque, translucent, or transparent?
Year 3 Jemison have shown they can predict, observe and experiment with light sources to explore if every day are opaque, translucent or transparent. We know if an object blocks the light it will create a shadow.
Science
Eureka
To bring our science learning about the human body to a close we visited Eureka and it’s many interactive exhibitions. We loved exploring the museum and taking part in the interactive senses workshop. We had so much fun and leant a lot.
Materials
Continuing with our
topic, we looked at which materials can be altered. Using the actions bend, stretch, twist and squash we tested different materials.
Properties of materials
We discussed the properties of different materials and learnt lots of new vocabulary! We then explored objects from around the classroom and matched the properties to each object.
Growing and Changing
We know what happens at each stage of the human life cycle!
Energy Changes
Today, year 3 Obama, explored how energy can change. They explored 5 different experiments to find out what energy is originally used and what energy it changes into. They looked at how chemical energy in batteries can change into light energy. They also explored how light energy can be used to charge glow in the dark objects and how this energy is stored and released slowly. Another investigation involved using light energy to make a solar toy move.
The Human Lifecycle
We know the stages of the human lifecycle!
Digestion
We have learned about the series of organs which break down food. Did you know that there are over 100 healthy bacteria in your gut? A healthy diet is a healthy gut and a healthy gut is a healthy mind!
Where do materials come from?
We have learnt about where different materials come from. We then completed a matching activity. We worked in groups to match the materials to their source.
Body Parts
We can identify human body parts!
