Our Class
Class 2 Timetable
Science week!
Our spring topic will be Rainforests! In this cross curricular topic we will take a closer look at the mysteries of the tropical rainforests. From the layers of the rainforests to its animal inhabitants, to the unique climate found in the tropics. We will compare a British forest with the Amazon rainforest, and begin to explore some conservation issues surrounding the destruction of rainforest habitats. In English we will be creating animal poetry; writing postcards and formal persuasive letters to a plantation owner. Below is the knowledge organiser which will support the children during this topic, it also includes the key vocabulary we will be learning.
