Primary 3 Scientists
Last week, Primary 3 became scientists to investigate what might affect the time taken for a toy car to travel down a slope. Children were organised into co-operative learning groups to plan and discuss how they would organise the experiment, including what variable they would change and what variables had to stay the same. Children worked collaboratively to carry out their test ensuring it was a fair experiment. This week, they will be displaying their results in a bar chart and discussing what conclusions they can make. Next week we will be starting our new science topic, The Human Body.
