A very busy week this week, the children have been enjoying an array of activities in English from role play, to research and creating their own informative text about either Astrology, Constellations or The Milky Way. In Geography, we have started learning about different climates in the tropics and around the world which mirrors our learning about ecosystems and food chains within Science. The children have learnt about different ecosystems including grasslands, tundra, the desert and the ocean, within the ecosystems they have been learning about what animals live their and what they need to survive, including what food they eat and how they fit into the food chain. Finally, in PE we have started hockey which has been so much fun, especially when the teachers get involved!
Home learning
