This week in Science, Year 3 have been learning all about the impact of ocean pollution. To explore this, we carried out a whole class investigation to observe how chemicals can enter the ocean using sprinkles and food colouring to act as fertiliser and pesticides and made it rain using a spray bottle.
After we had experimented with the different chemicals, we collected three water samples to record the difference in the quality of water and the results shocked us all. This lead to a discussion where we thought deeply about the importance of caring for our environment and thought about some of the ways that we can protect the ocean and other habitats.
Have a look at the pictures of our budding Scientists. Well done Year 3!
