Our strand of Science is Biology-we are learning about living things. In week 1 we looked at the parts of a plant. We can identify the: root, stem, leaf and flower. We have planted some bulbs and put them on our classroom windowsills. We’re hoping they grow well!
This week we have begun learning about animals. In particular-mammals.
Mammals have fur or hair. They have live young and they are warm blooded.- Norah
Using this definition, we have been sorting animals into ‘mammals’ and ‘not mammals.’
Check out the BBC Bitesize pages about Mammals-we love them!
Help at home: Can you talk about the different parts of a plant? Perhaps you can compare different plants when outside. When you come across an animal: discuss if it a mammal or not and why.
