Here they are again hard at work! This time using an Atlas and a newly developed set skills in using landscape maps of the 7 continents to identify mountains and their sizes, as well as locating mountain ranges!

I was amazed at how well the children worked on these to create their scrap tornadoes in pairs. At first, I thought I’d maybe bitten off more than I could chew on a Friday afternoon but they absolutely smashed it! These scrap tornadoes are made from literally scrap pieces of paper from our scrap paper drawer and some old leaflets and a newspaper I had at home. Layering up strips of dark colours that they could find in the shape of a tornado. We then had a discussion about a range of adjectives we could use to describe a tornado and they used these words to create a short and simple poem within their art work! Here are some snaps of them working away! I’m just upset I forgot to take pictures of their final ones to show them off, but stayed tuned they will definitely be making an appearance next week!

These are so beautiful, the children worked really hard and showed lots of pride to produce these lovely pieces of art to further immerse their classroom. Tasked with using a range of medias to create a tsunami wave.

The children have worked so well on locating rivers within the UK! They started by looking at a map of thier local area and identifying rivers and canals as waterways. They then were able to use search technologies and other maps to identify other rivers within the UK and place them on their own blank maps! Awesome job guys as per usual!
