On 16th of September it is D.A.T day and we have been working on Models, Posters and Powerpoints at home and at school. First we got split up into groups and then Miss Foster gave us a system to research. The systems names are Skeletal System, Circulatory System, Nervous System, Muscular System, Digestive System and Respiratory System. But some people got the 5 Senses. For our powerpoint it was like we would do a system each week and then we would do a couple of slides on that system. When we have our D.A.T day we will go put all of the thing we did up in the gym and some of our family will come and have a look at everyones work!
