At the end of Grade 3, learners can describe the functions of the different parts of the body and things
that make up their surroundings --- rocks
and soil, plants and animals, the Sun, Moon and stars. They can also classify these things as solid,
liquid or gas. They can describe how objects
move and what makes them move. They can also identify sources and describe uses of light, heat,
sound, and electricity.
Learners can describe changes in the conditions of their surroundings. These would lead learners to
become more curious about their
surroundings, appreciate nature, and practice health and safety measures.
