Our new topic is Land and Living
Geography - A local area study of County Durham
We will be comparing a range of places across the county (including villages, towns, cities, coastal and rural locations), identifying human and physical features and the way the land is used. We will also be looking at maps, plans and aerial photographs.
Science – plants and animals (including humans)
First, we will be learning what animals, including humans, need to survive and the importance of exercise, having a balanced diet and good hygiene. We will also be learning about the life cycles of a variety of different animals. After half term, we will be learning to identify some wild and garden plants and learn the difference between deciduous and evergreen trees. We will also be looking at the parts of a flowering plant and tree and what they need to grow. Lots of gardening to be done!
