LEGO LAB
In the Lego Lab Ellie showed us how to control a robot and then we had a go on our own. First we had to make the robot go round two cans in a square which not everyone could do. Then we had to make the robot go round two cans in a circle which was harder than going round the cans in a square. Next we had to make the robot stop just before it hit the wall.
WILD LIFE
In the wild life area we saw a skeleton of a gigantic deer. Then we saw a skeleton of a crocodile which we had to find out which tooth would fit into the tooth bite on the leg. We saw lots of stuffed animals there to. There was a skeleton of a Triceratops head.
IT WAS GREAT !!!!!!!
The trip to THINK TANK was FAB the sections we visited were great and interesting. This trip has been the best so far and I would like to go there again
Lego lab

On Tuesday 13th May Year 3 went to the ThinkTank in Birmingham. We went on the coach to the ThinkTank. We saw lots of interesting things. Our favourite sections of the day were the Lego Lab and the Wildlife section. In the Lego Lab we used a computer to tell the Lego robot how to move. We programmed the robot to stop by the sound of our voice, when we said stop, it stopped.
In the Wildlife section we saw the skeleton of a crocodile, which had a whole in its leg where it had been bitten. We really enjoyed our trip to the ThinkTank and we learnt lots of new things. When we arrived back at school it was home time and we felt really tired.

THINK TANK
On Tuesday 13th May year 3 went to Think Tank. When we got there it looked FABULUS on the outside but inside it looked better. When we got inside we were all exited. My favourite place was Lego Lab because we got to control robots. We went in the section called the streets. In the streets we had to put the food that was coming on a conveyer belt in the recycling bins. In the Wildlife area we walked over the crocodile. When You turn the corner you will see a massif GIGANTIC deer
