Y3 Science/ Geography trip



Last week we went on a science and geography field trip to Mornington Woods. In science we measured the light levels of the different layers of the temperate rainforest using our luxmeters. The children have preactised using lux meters in the classroom and could confidently predict that the light levels would be the lowest on the forest floor as the plants would block the light. Super science Y3! They sketched different plants and went on a scaveger hunt! Followed by a well deserved icecream :)

This week was week 2 and we explored the musical terminology 'timbre' and 'dynamics'. The children enjoyed exploring different types of percussion instruments and the different sounds that they could create. They composed some short pieces of music, all about a cloud. They performed their compositions and the rest of the class described the mood that they had created through their music, using the new musical vocabulary, timbre and dynamics.
