Current Topic - "Roaming in the Rainforest" - Term 3
This term, our topic is Roaming in the Rainforest. We will be learning where rainforests are in the world and finding out about their incredible diversity. We will learn about the different layers of the rainforest, the animals and the types of plants that thrive in this type of habitat. Our English work will focus on the book - ‘Buddy’s Rainforest Rescue’. We will explore and discuss the impact of deforestation on the rainforest and its inhabitants. In Art, we will be looking at Henri Rousseau and painting our own rainforest pictures in the style of Rousseau. Our Science topic this term is ‘light’, we will identify different sources of light(natural and artificial), understanding that light travels in straight lines,and exploring how it interacts with objects to create shadows and reflections.
