The types of living things found in the rainforest and how have they adapted to survive there?

This block we are going to be looking at the themes of adaptation and conservation when we look at the Rainforest.

What do you already know? We thought about the following questions individually and now we have worked in groups of 3 to share what we know.

What types of living things can be found in the rainforest and how have they adapted to survive?

How do humans use the rainforest and what does this mean for the rainforest?

We would like to find out about:

1. All the planets
2. The solar system and how it works
3. Space travel
4. The sun and how it affects the Earth
5. Moons and how they are made
6. Stars and how they are made
7. Life in space
8. The Milky Way, black holes, and nebulas
9. The big bang

Have a look to see what our achievements have been in primary six. These may be achievements in school, or at home, and can be added to the page by Mrs Wallace, the children, or by parents. Well done P6b – you are all stars!!!

We have been reading the novel the Iron Man and recently started watching the film The Iron Giant.  There have been lots of similarities but also lots of differences between the two.  What similarities/differences have you spotted?

We have been given a challenge of building an iron man out of recycled junk.  Our iron men must:

1. Be able to stand up unaided.
2. Be between 80-100cm tall.
3. Have eyes that light up.

We have drawn our plans and started building but will we be able to meet all the criteria?

La lalalala discrimination’s wrong!

Lalalalalala discrimination’s right?

We all have an opinion of what’s right or wrong.

My opinion is it’s totally wrong!

We have been learning about discrimination. A horrible, nasty thing that happens all around the world. Its when people  react differently towards someone who looks different, acts different or has  a different religion or  ability or skin colour , just because they’re different doesn’t mean people have to treat them differently!
