Year 5/6 have been studying how we change and develop over our lifetime – physical or emotional changes. They have also been learning about events that happen at different points in our lives, such as starting school and learning to drive. We have been busy learning our vocabulary for this unit, which includes:
adolescence
adolescent
arthritis
gestation period
life expectancy
puberty
teenager
Ask your child if they can remember what these words mean. Can you play some games at home to help your child remember them. I highly recommend a game of Pictionary – can anyone guess what you’re drawing?!
