Do plants need light????

As part of our light topic we are investigating if plants need light to grow. We have planted some seeds and are conducting an experiment on  whether or not light affects plant growth. We will keep our plants in various areas of the classroom so give light, shade and darkness

‘I am interested to see how the plants will grow’ – Lauren

‘I am looking forward to see what plants grow in what place.’ – Gabrielle

‘I can’t wait to see how they turn out.’- Mia

‘I think that the seeds that have the sunlight will grow the best.’ Ewan

We will keep you posted!!

Should we have schools?

 

This week we have been preparing a debate on whether or not we should have schools!!

Some of our opinions were very interesting and we are looking forward to our debate.

“I think that we shouldn’t have schools as it gets in the way of my time to play. “- Sam

“I think we should have schools so that we can challenge ourselves.” – Gabrielle

“I think we should have schools to get a better education. “- Derek

We developed our opinions in groups.

We have also been looking at optical illusions as part of our light topic.

“I was confused with the black dots.” – Louise

“The illusions were awesome because they were messing with our brains.” Amara
