‘Welcome to our valley. We are proud to grow here together’

Autumn Term 2

Autumn 2 -

What are we learning about?

As geographers, we are looking at the features of 'The Amazon Rainforest'. We will look at the different layers of the rainforest and explore how indigenous people use the rainforest. The children will be visiting 'The Tropical World' to learn more about the rainforest. This is a very fun and exciting trip, the children will enjoy this immensely. 

 

As designers, we will be using circuits to make a functioning torch with a switch. The children will learn all about the diffferent components to a torch and adapt their designs to a given criteria. This is a very practical unit which will help our children to work methodically with many elements to consider.
