Our Topic for Term 2A is 'Eco-Warriors'.

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 man had an impact.

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