This half term Year 3 and 4 have started a new geography topic – explorers. In this topic we are learning about different places within Europe and comparing and contrasting them. This week we created fact files on York and Venice – finding out lots of information such as latitude, population and area – using atlases and online search engines.
We have also linked this learning to our writing where we are producing a promotional text on either York or Venice. The children have really enjoyed carrying out independent research on their chosen city and are looking forward to publishing these pieces next week.
Help at home by continuing to listen to your child read and asking them questions as they go to help develop their understanding and encouraging your child to play on TTRS regularly.
Have a great weekend!
