We have directed a roamer (a turtle robot) to move around a map of an island. Everyone enjoyed programming the roamer with sets of instructions and watching the roamer move and change directions. We used a CD-ROM Encyclopedia to locate information about habitats and Google Earth to look at places near and far.

In Science we have been learning about plants and animals. We are recording the growth of our broad bean seeds and check they have the conditions they need to grow. We enjoyed walking around the local area on a nature hunt investigating the habitats of plants and animals. When investigating seed dispersal we made our own "seed parachute" to find out if the size of a seed effects dispersal. We found out that the wind can scatter small seeds and animals can disperse larger seeds.
