Giraffe Class - Year 3 and 4
Welcome back Giraffe Class!
Term 6 - Flow
Get your wellies on and let’s wade right in!
This half term, we’ll visit our local river the Dour (a chalk stream) to find out what lives there, where the river is going and how fast it’s travelling. At the river, we’ll collect water and soil samples and catch river creatures. We’ll examine the samples at school to investigate how clean the water is. Using our creativity, we’ll write journals as river travellers and journey on an imaginary boat to rivers around the world. We will investigate the water cycle and use natural materials to make models that demonstrate river formation. Our map reading and research skills will help us to find out about world famous rivers.
Our PE days are: Monday and Thursday
Please come to school dressed in your PE kit on these days with earrings removed and long hair tied up.
