Science<\/p>\n

We continued our food chains topic by researching animals that live in the ocean. We watched an episode of Blue Planet while taking notes on the names of the animals and who eats who. We then drew pictures of the animals for our cover page and built food chains.

Art and Design<\/p>\n

We used different lengths of wavy lines and warm coloured crayons to create a picture of the slot canyons found in South America. \"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Literacy<\/p>\n

Our class novel this month has been Fantastic Mr Fox by Ronald Dahl to link to our farming topic. We have been learning to find information from a text that describes characters. We have also been learning to track events in a story. \"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"
\nIn writing we have been learning how to write persuasively. First, we wrote to persuade someone to apply for a Fox catcher job to help the farmers catch that sneaky fox.<\/p>\n

Social Studies<\/p>\n

We have been very busy this month learning all about the importance of farming in food production. First we researched what arable farming means after watching videos and taking notes. Next we found out what a farmer does each season on the farm. We made posters to show our understanding. \"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Outdoor Learning<\/p>\n

This month we were weather wizards and made a weather sock which can be used to test the direction and speed of the wind. \"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"
\nAs part of our farming topic, one of our questions was \u2018how do apples grow?\u2019 We went outside to look at some of the trees on the school grounds to look for any fruit, flowers and the shape of leaves. We were interested by the hazel tree. After that we came back inside and sequenced the life cycle of an apple tree.<\/p>\n
