Today P4 were discussing what they would like to find out about Africa. Here are some of their interesting questions:

Eilidh wants to find out why there are so many illnesses in Africa.

Sasha would like to know the laws of Africa.

Jack and Kai were curious about the jobs people do in Africa. Are they similar to the jobs in our country?

Melissa, Leah and Tyrese would like to know why some parts of countries in Africa are very rich while some others are very poor.

Emma would like to know what the schools are like.

Cameron is keen to know where exactly the football world cup held.

Jamie was curious about they way they dress.

Caitlyn and Emily want to find out about what kind of food they eat in Africa.

Luke and Levi were keen to find out more about the different animals in Africa, there are so many!

Chloe and Cara would like to know about the different religions in Africa.

Elle was curious about the houses.

James would like to know more about all the different countries in Africa.

Do you have any questions about Africa? Or can you answer any of our questions?

Safari – Day one. Photos

Emma learned today that happiness reflects on people around you. So if you are kind and happy, other people might feel the same way. If you are grumpy, other people will act the same.

Safari Log – Day 1.

Wow, that was terrific, today we went on an epic, fun filled, life changing adventure in the green savannah. It was so burning hot, we saw really tall, long legged giraffes and giant, humungous elephants. We saw beautifully coloured flowers and wavy, flowing rivers of bright blue, reflecting my camera. Today was excellent, tomorrow might be more interesting still. I’m so excited I can hardly wait.

Today P4 are starting their African Safari using the game Wild Earth African Safari

Ami thinks that playing the game will be good because it will have lots of animals in it and it will be interesting.

Emma thinks it will be quite good because all games will help us. We will learn lots of facts about animals and when we play we will get better at the game too.

Elle thinks that maybe we could get the game at home and learn at home. It might be a good introduction to playing games for people too.

Keri thinks that it’s important to keep precious things like games away from animals or small children as they could damage them.

Ami thinks that the game has lots of African things in it and we will learn lots       and it will be really fun to play on.

Ellis thinks that we could blog our ideas that we find out as we play the game.

Emma thinks that we need to be careful about viruses on the game.

Levi wonders what will happen if you come up to any animals that might injure you.

Ami wonders if you could pick an animal to play as or you could adopt an animal to look after.

We are learning about Africa this term. Have a look at what we know on our wallwisher page.

…to this.
