Term 4
Journeys
In term 4 we will be exploring our local environment and the contrasting parts of the UK. We will explore what rural, city and coastal mean and compare the similarities and differences of them. We will research and learn about the Brunel and his significance in history and read a range of books such as Mrs Noah's Pockets and Storm Whale. Our investigation this term, for science, will be the best materials to use for a tent and we are looking forward to testing a range of materials for this.
