Rocks & Soils
This term the children in year 3 will be working scientifically to compare and observe rocks, including those used in buildings and gravestones, and exploring how and why they might have changed over time; using a hand lens or microscope to help them to identify and classify rocks according to whether they have grains or crystals, and whether they have fossils in them.
You can help your child by visiting the library and reading books on this topic.
