         Welcome to Term 4 STEM – Science!

This term, our STEM program will focus on the ‘S’ in STEM – Science! The students from Prep to Year 6 will be focussing on  Chemical Sciences through a range of engaging, hands-on investigations.

In their first lesson the  students were officially inducted as ‘scientists’! They were introduced to scientific language and encouraged to think and communicate like scientists when conducting investigations and experiments.

We also explored ‘What Good Scientists Do’, discussing the important skills scientists use, such as observing, questioning, predicting, investigating and explaining their discoveries. There were many discussions about the different fields of science and the skills needed to work in each field.

It promises to be an exciting and very hands-on term, with the students participating in practical experiments and investigations to enhance their understanding of the units being explored  We look forward to seeing our young scientists explore, question, discover and develop their curiosity about the world around them!
