Our Science topic this term is Rock Detectives! In this lesson we investigated whether all rocks are as hard as one another. We carried out the ‘Scratch Test’ using coins, nails and other stones to scratch the rocks and then compared them to see which was the hardest. Science rocks!

Our Topic this term is The Stone Age. In History, we have been learning about how and what the Stone Age people used to eat. We role-played being a Stone Age boy or girl by hunting and gathering in the playground. We learned about the different animals that they hunted and the different food they would have gathered – such as fruit, nuts, plants and seeds. We also learned that gathering was much easier than hunting because we didn’t need to use spears and the food didn’t try to run away!
