Week 1
In Science, we have started our topic 'Animals including humans'. In our first lesson we looked at a range of animals and their babies. We grouped the babies of living things based on whether they looked like their adult or not. For example, a kitten looks like a cat but a tadpole does not look like a frog. Penguins enjoyed thinking about whether they looked like their parents or not. One child said that they did not look like their mother, as she dyes the colour of her hair.
We also grouped these animals based on their animal group - fish, birds, mammals, reptiles and amphibians. Some of these were tricky to identify, but we agreed the fish and the birds were the easiest!
In D.T., we started our learning on sculpturing. We read about two British artists - Marc Quinn and Brendan Jamison. Marc created sculptures using materials such as bread and Brendan used sugar cubes!
We designed our own sugar cube sculptures. We hope you like them.
