Science

During the Autumn term, the children are learning about how we grow and stay healthy in Science. For the first 2 weeks, we looked after chick eggs, watching them hatch and the chicks grow. They were then taken back to Bowland Farm. This gave the children the opportunity to predict what is in an egg at various stages of incubation, research the development of a chick and understand that it is a baby chicken. They also discuss and researched what the chicks will need to grow into healthy adults.
