Year 5: Term 3
Sharing the Planet
Term Three:
Theme: Sharing the Planet.
This term, we will be following different lines of inquiry to help us find out about "resources that are essential for life may not be equally available for everyone"
Our lines of inquiry include:
What we can do in order to sustain the Earth's resources (Responsibility)
Why some of Earth's resources are considered to be 'limited' (Causation)
What renewable and nonrenewable energy sources are (Function)
Term 3 - Knowledge Organisers
In Inquiry this term we have been looking at renewable and non renewable energy. We researched the two and with that information we wrote a persuasive letter to No. 10 Downing Street to ensure they take action and stop using non-renewable energy.
In DT this term we built a tippy tap during our outdoor learning lessons. We used a range of different knots to ensure the structures were stable and the mechanism of the pedal and 'water jug' functioned properly.
In PSHE this week we were learning the recovery position in an emergency situation. We worked with our learning partners and ensured they were put into the correct positions.
