The Pebble In My Pocket

By Kim Ferguson, in Year 3 - Monday, 27 March 2023

Where do pebbles come from? How are they made? These are just 2 of the questions that year 3 are trying to find out this term as we investigate rocks and soil. In our guided reading lessons we have been reading the book Pebble in My Pocket by Meredith Hooper & Chris Coady. We are tracking the story of a pebble from its origin in a fiery volcano 480 million years ago to its place in a modern landscape today. To help the children understand its journey they have personalised their own pebbles.
