Term 3
Welcome back to term 3, it certainly promises to be an exciting term. Here is a taste of what we are learning this term.
English
In unit 5 we are learning to retell a narrative from a different point of view. We are studying traditional tales and The Lorax by Dr Seuss. Our assessment is a comprehension task. We are also going to choose a character from The Lorax and write from their perspective.
This display shows our ‘Know and Do’ chart, the exemplar and the criteria sheet. Everything we need to know in order to complete our tasks.
Science
This term we are studying ‘Heat Energy’. So far we have learnt that heat is energy and that there are 4 types of energy – rubbing energy, chemical energy, electrical energy and heat from the sun.
This week we carried out an experiment to see how heat is transferred. We heated up a bowl of porridge and took temperature readings every two minutes for 8 minutes. Our results showed the temperature readings went down each time we took the reading.
We concluded that the heat moved from the hot porridge into the cooler air.
