We had the pleasure of welcoming Alex Dobbs, a local farmer and avid gardener, who gave an engaging and informative talk on photosynthesis and plant composition. As we prepare for Science Blast in two weeks, Alex has very kindly offered her support with our project, “Why Leaves Make Their Great Escape in Autumn.”
Fifth Class have thoroughly enjoyed exploring this topic and have been highly motivated while carrying out individual, hands-on experiments using leaves. Their curiosity, enthusiasm, and scientific thinking have been wonderful to see throughout the investigations.
