Year 3 Science - 15th January 2015

Year 3s gathered together today to recap on their learning last week of the Digestive System.  We began the lesson with an interesting video where the children choose food samples and watched them travel through the system.  Along the way they picked up some very clever scientific vocabulary - colon, duodenum, rectum and anus.

We then worked in groups to place vital organs in the correct place on the body - photos of which are below.  

Finally the children completed a diagram of the digestive system with correct vocabulary and moved on to write some facts about each part of the digestive system.

I am incredibly impressed with the learning that has taken place in Science over the last two weeks - I can't imagine what is causing such great enthusiasm.   Surely it can't be down to all that poo?!
