We identified where different animal live and the unique features they have to help them survive in the Antarctic, the Sea, the Desert and in Rainforest habitats. Posters were designed in pairs and we played practical matching habitat games in small groups. It was great fun and helped us develop our understanding of the environments different animals live in!
Sir Steve Redgrave
As part of their water topic, class 2 have learnt all about Sir Steve Redgrave. Read about what they have done in their reports! We wrote letters to Sir Steve and we're lucky enough to receive an email back.
