Fantastically great women who changed the world

Year 3 have been using their English lesson today to do some reasearch. Our Right of the term is Article 17- the right to information. We have been researching different women from the book Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World using Google and the book to support us.

Every child has the right to information and to find out things that might affect them. Our research today opened a discussion about whether we can always trust the information we can find and why there is more information available on the internet than there is in books.

We gathered together our ideas and will continue the discussion in Guided Reading next week when we look at how to trust a website.
