Spring 1 - What is in the world around me?
Within our school, we want our children to know:
- That the local area has many natural and man-made features which can be explored by different modes of transport
- That there are interesting animals and wildlife in the local area
- That the area has changed over time and is now quite different from its silk weaving past
- That the world around them continues to change with the seasons
We visited the local area
We recreated the Bee Thai take away in our classroom
We found out about local animals and made hedgehogs out of clay
After we had completed the half-term, children were shown some visual reminders and asked to recall what they had learnt and to apply that to answer the question. Their responses were drawn together into the following visual reminder for the children.
