I am a scientist

OWe have been learning to think like scientists this term. Learning all about plants has helped us to become scientists. We have been asking lots of questions and trying to answer them. We found out that plants breathe and drink water. We found the best way to germinate a seed – seeds need water to germinate but the plant needs water, soil and sun to grow well.

WALT: investigate

         Ask questions

         Make predictions (think about what is going to happen)

         Observe and record what happens    

Use what we have observed to make conclusions

WALT share our ideas

Task

Show my science learning using play dough, drawing and labelling what we can see, classifying the plants and completing the plant life cycle activity.

Success Criteria:

I can ask questions

I think about what might happen

I look closely (observe)

I share my ideas

Our plants are in groups. Leaves are in one pile.

"look at my seeds" said Isaac

    

My seeds are on the tree. Can you see them?

Reflection

I really like: growing my own seed.

I think I need to practice: writing the names of the plant.

Something that really helped me was: drawing lots of pictures of plants.

Kerri thinks
I can see you have enjoyed thinking like a scientist and finding out about plants and what helps them to grow. You looked closely at the plants and are starting to add details to your drawings.
