As we finish our study of the Victorian Period our focus changes to 'Eco-Warriors'.

In this topic, we learn about how we can take better care of our planet, through the importance of Reducing, Reusing and Recycling, and the difference this makes locally and globally. 

We will become aware of how place affects plant and animal life and discuss different climates and ecosystems of the world (Rainforests, Polar Regions, Deserts ). We will study the plant life found in regions of the world (focus on Amazon rainforest) and decide the best place for warmth and coolness when situating a plant.

Through study of the different regions of our world we will better understand the interdependence of the natural world, including food chains.

We will be able to locate of the rainforests of the world and discuss their climatic and physical features.

Through our Learning Log research we will come to know how explorers had both a positive and negative impact on communities and understand what environments were like before humanity made an impact.

We will learn about the ways in which people may conserve and change the environment globally.

We will understand the inter-relationships between animals and plants in a habitat.
