Photographs and Displays
Reception have been very busy finding out about their local area; and the people who help our local community. They also have been finding out where different foods come from such as the oranges in Handa's Surprise.
Y2 have been finding out about the continent of Australasia and exploring Aboriginal art through paintings and drawings. For more of their work, visit their class page and photos.
Using our "Mapping Skills" in Y4 to help us find out more about France
Looking at Maps- developing a global perspective and getting to know our local area
Geography Fieldwork Year 6
In the classroom we made hypotheses (predictions) about what we would find on our fieldwork trip
What condition would the play area be in terms of litter, graffiti, vandalism and neglect?
Most of us hypothesised that the play area would be in good condition
What would the facilities be like in the park area in general?
Most of us hypothesised that the facilities would be good too
Would tourists have different views from residents?
Most of us thought yes. We thought that we tend to notice what is in our local area because we are used to it. We thought that tourists would notice more. If they came from more inner city, or run down areas they would probably be positive about the park: if they came from rural areas they might be less positive mad might notice any litter or graffiti more.
We will analyse our findings back at school and report upon them, evaluating our methods and making recommendations about the park.
