In English, the children imagined that they were one of the creatures who inhabit ‘The Great Kapok Tree’ and set about writing letters to the man who had come to chop the tree down. Written with passion and conviction, the children set about persuading him why our planet depends on trees and how the habitats of a huge variety of creatures are at risk. We look forward to continuing our rainforest learning journey next week, reading another text by Lynne Cherry and researching more about the creatures who inhabit the tropical rainforests.
In science, the children learned about how habitats can support a wide range of animals. They also found out about how animals have adapted to suit their environment through class discussions and a variety of resources.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!
