Animals and their Habitats 🐞🦔🐟

We began our lesson today by recapping habitats and then played a silent matching game to match the animals to their natural habitats. We then used our silent signals for agree and disagree to show our answers. This generated some fantastic discussions about how some animals had more than one habitat which we used later in the lesson.

We then used a Venn diagram to compare the different animals who lived in an urban habitat and a woodland habitat and discussed those such as foxes and hedgehogs which could live in both.

To finish our lesson and really challenge ourselves we tried to answer the question “Why wouldn’t you find a polar bear in the forest?”. Again this generated some good discussions and we used our previous knowledge of the basic needs to animals to help come up with a collaborative answer.

Great work everyone!

Presentation of Learning – Autumn expedition

We showcased our beautiful work and everything that we had achieved to our family and friends in a presentation of learning. On display were our repurposed frames, which had our art work and monologues alongside. We read our emotive monologues out loud and protested to save our planet. Hopefully, we made the audience reflect on  how they could help our planet survive.
