Our Budding Scientists in Farthing Wood Class

Science Practical Work: Classifying Rocks Our budding scientists in Farthing Wood Class have had a marvellous week exploring the fascinating world of rocks. Using their scientific tools and investigation methods, they have delved into the classification of rocks based on their unique properties. Through rigorous testing and observation, these dedicated learners have assessed a wide range of rock types, investigating their permeability, durability, density, and hardness. Building upon their newly acquired knowledge, they have successfully categorised these rocks into three main types: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. To showcase their impressive work, the class has proudly set up a display just inside the classroom door. Equipped with magnifying glasses for closer inspection, the display allows visitors to explore the distinct characteristics of each rock type. We warmly invite you to view this display with your child and class teacher during the morning drop off.
