Our Enquiry Question this Summer Term:
WHAT CAN WE SEE IN THE SEA?
Concepts : Change, Living Things, Nature.
This term Mrs. Davidge is looking forward to exploring different ways to be creative with the children. Our learning has an Expressive Arts focus so we will be listening to and creating music; exploring movement and dance and using a variety of mediums to be creative in art. We will be finding out about different sea creatures; discussing beaches and the impact of pollution and exploring floating and sinking in relation to sea travel.
We are looking forward to presenting some of our art work in a class art gallery at the end of the term.
