Year 3 officially launched British Science Week with an "out-of-this-world" experience! Our budding scientists dived into a 'Horrible Histories; Science Live Lesson, joined by Grace Webb, 'The Rapping Science Teacher' Matt Green, and legendary astronaut Tim Peake. Together, we investigated the mysteries of light energy and our solar system, separating "science fact" from "science fiction. Inspired by this year’s theme, ‘Curiosity: What’s your question?’, the classrooms became hubs of oracy and debate. Pupils took centre stage to practice 
speaking and listening. The children then had questions of their own. How does the Moon stay in the sky? What does space actually smell like? What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning for just one second? We also turned our curiosity inward, creating Time Capsules in a Jar to capture who we are now and who we hope to become by the end of the year. It’s been a fantastic start to a week of big questions and even bigger ideas! What’s your question?
