Geography – Rocks, Relics and Rumbles
This term we begin a geography based topic called ‘Rocks, Relics and Rumbles’. In the Rocks, Relics and Rumbles project, we will learn about the different layers of the Earth, including plate tectonics and their potential effects on the Earth’s surface. We will have the opportunity to use maps to learn about the lines of latitude and longitude. We will also learn about volcanoes and earthquakes and how these occur.
Science – Light
This term we will be learning about light. We will learn that light is a form of energy essential to life on Earth, dark is the absence of light and that the Sun is Earth’s main source of light and heat. We will identify and investigate light sources and reflectors and discuss their differences. We will learn about transparent, translucent and opaque materials and ask scientific questions about light, reflectors and shadows and research to find the answers.
