In our first Geography lesson, we were studying the countries in Europe. We began by being given a European country and, in groups, had to carry out research into the physical and human characteristics of that country. Amongst other things, we looked at mountain ranges, rivers, lakes for the physical characteristics and then the population, architecture, bridges, cities to identify the human characteristics of the country. Here are our finsihed results.
As an introduction to our new topic, we looked at the history of the Olympic Mascots. Here are ours.
In class, we have been learning the skills for building tension in our writing. We worked together in small groups to plan and write a narrative. We had to use a range of different sentence structures and we showed this by writing in different coloured pens. We then used our editing skills to improve it. Can you feel the tension in our writing?
Following on from our work on classifying animals, we looked at classifying plants. We discovered that Carl Linnaeus developed the modern system for classifying and naming organisms. Before him, they were really long, but he gave each one a two-part name. Here is the work that we completed.
One of our first science lessons was learning how to classify animals. Here are some examples of the way we showed what we have learned.
