Class 5 had an awesome first week back at school last week hooking into our new expedition. Our new Expedition is ‘The Blue Planet: How will what a do today impact the world tomorrow?’ Each class is focussing their learning on a different part of the world. Class 5 are learning all about Australia! We had so much fun learning about the continents and where Australia is located on the world map. We learned what it is like in Australia and how this differed from our life in the UK. The children had lots of fun watching videos all about the landscape, wildlife and how people live in Australia.
We also had lots of fun making different crafts to immerse our classroom and make it feel like we were visiting the Land Down Under! We learned about the Aborigines and made our own boomerangs and Aboriginal dot art. We also made paper plate koalas, Australian flags and collages of Earth and its continents. Our classroom is looking AMAZING!
Here are some photos of our week:
