Microscope science work


During our science/art enrichment week, Year 3 focused on the organism of algae. We looked at macro algae such as seaweed, and then used a microscope to look in more detail at micro algae that floats in pond water.



We also used the microscope to look at a plant leaf and petal too. Below are all the items we looked at through the microscope.

We learnt that they ate nuts and  berries that they found, and hunted for animals and fish. We looked at different weapons that they used such as a long bow, arrow and a long spear.
