Science Investigation

An important part of science is collecting and recording data. The Year 1 students are learning about Sound and Hearing. During this theme they have learnt to recognise sources of sounds.

Armed with Ipads, the students went out onto the playground to photograph different sources of sound. When they had collected their data they shared the photos with their peers, explaining the source of the sound. The students then recorded their observations, by drawing the sources of sound they had photographed.

When students learn to record and report on data collected, it helps them make sense of what they have observed, thus giving them greater insight into the topics we cover.

All in all our little scientists had so much fun exploring and reporting their findings, we look forward to doing this again soon.
