Primary 4 Prepare for the Desert!

This week, Primary 4 were preparing to take a trip!

We have been exploring our Climate Zones topic through storyline. We created families  in table groups and prepared their passports for travelling. They visited a Polar climate in Barrow, Alaska, where there were freezing temperatures and lots of snow/ice. We made picture postcards to show our families dressed in warm clothes, riding the Tundra buggy and spotting polar animals!

Then, our families took a long flight to the Sahara Desert. It was extremely hot and dry, so our families had to keep covered to stop them from getting sunstroke. Few people can survive in the desert, so there were no hotels or holiday homes for our families to stay in. So, using the little batch of materials we had, we designed places for them to stay. Have a look at our designs below – what do you reckon?

Our next trip will take our families to the rainforests of Brazil – check in with us to see how they are doing!

Until next time…

Primary 4, Families & Miss M 🙂

  1. Well done with those work P4, I enjoyed seeing the beginning of this learning and look forward to hearing about the development. Good work on developing skills working in groups and solving problems.
