The Rainforest Starts

Class: Year 4 Year: 2015 - 2016

The children in year four are currently working on the context for learning theme of 'Secrets of the Rainforest'.

Before the summer holidays the children took part in pre-planning activities to develop ideas about the theme and come up with questions that they would like to find the answer to during their studies. These questions have been used to plan the children’s learning experiences throughout the autumn half term. 

The children were also set a homework task to complete over the summer holidays. This homework task was an open-minded task and connected to the rainforest. 

The children then had opportunity to present their work to the other children before it became part of the 'Year 4 Forest' turning our classroom into a rainforest. The images attached show some of the children’s work in the classroom.
