Sedimentary rocks

This week we did a science experiment to see how sedimentary rocks are formed. First we collected together the resources we needed. Gravel, sand, chalk, water, buckets, sieves and scoops.

Rocks Rock

This week we started our Unit of Inquiry on How the World Works. We talked about the things the children already knew about rocks then they decided what they wanted to find out about rocks. The children had great fun collecting different coloured rocks.

A quiet week

It was a very quiet week in Grade 1 this week, at least on Ms Marie’s part. They continued looking at ‘ea’ sounds and further investigated measurement.

Measuring

This week we have been looking at measurement. We looked at taller and shorter, longer and shorter, wide and narrow. We also used some non standard units to measure body parts.
