P3/4 – Inheritance

Leave a comment

As part of our IDL Topic, My Body, we have been learning about inheritance and characteristics that can be inherited.

We learnt about inherited characteristics in humans, animals and plants. Lots of great discussion took place!

MONSTER INHERITANCE CHALLENGE: To explore inherited characteristics, learners chose 2 monsters and then had to identify characteristics that could be passed onto their offspring.  They then drew what the offspring could possibly look like. P3/4 excelled themselves and their monsters were ROAR-some!!


P3/4 – IDL

We used a range of non-fictions books about the body to find out information about the liver and the kidneys.

We used our literacy skills to use the contents and index to locate the correct page.  Once we found out facts, we noted them down and then search what we had learnt with others.

We were amazed to learn that an adult’s liver in roughly the size of a rugby ball!

P3/4 – Padlet KWL – My Body

Leave a comment

When we start a new topic/IDL, we like to complete a KWL (what you KNOW, what you WANT to know and what you have LEARNT).

Today, the class logged into Glow, open their emails and used the link sent by Mrs Conetta to a KWL Padlet on My Body.  It is like an online post-it notice board that updates in real-time! Everyone was excited to post on the Padlet and read everyone else’s posts about the body.

We will revisit the Padlet and add what we have learnt at the end of the topic.

P3/4 – IDL and Fairtrade

Leave a comment

Having learnt about products and resources the rainforests give us, we decide to look into fairtrade products.

P3/4 watched a video describing what can happen to non-fairtrade farmers who grow crops and compared this to farmers who are fairtrade farmers.  They worked in pairs to compare the journeys these products take.  We had a lot of discussion about how it is fair that the farmers get a fair price and what they can do with the money.

The results are in!  P3/4 have come to the conclusion that plants need both light and water to grow healthily.  We examined all the plants and we used our measuring skills to measure the growth of each plant.
