My Living Thing

• We are learning to understand that all living things need different things to survive

During term 2, C6 have been learning about living things; we learnt about honey bees, oak trees, and kiwis. For our assessment, they had to create their own creature/living thing, and label how it breathes and how it moves. They then wrote a report that explained what their creature was, what it looked like, where it lived, and what it needed to survive. Next they put it all together into a poster.
