Why are databases so useful?
We’ve been using 2Investigate to create a database using Switcheroo animals. But, why is a database more useful than a set of data on index cards, or a book? Add your ideas and thoughts about this task as comments below.

Well done on your garden surveys from last week. This weeks task is connected with the poem Magic Box by Kit Wright, which we’ve been looking at in school. You can see Kit Wright reading it by clicking on the image to the left. What would you put in your Magic Box? What would it look like? Perhaps make a list, or draw a picture to show the magic box and its contents.
