Rainforest project reflection We had an excellent start to year 4 learning all about the amazon rainforest. Firstly, we looked at the different layers of the rainforest. This was very hands on and we actually built it in our classrooms! Then, we looked at who lives in the rainforest. This included people, the Yanomami tribe, and the animals. We then moved onto looking at food chains and what eats what in the rainforest. This developed our knowledge of different animals as well as how a food chain works and the key terminology. After this, we looked at what causes it to rain. This involved investigating the water cycle. Finally, we looked at how we can protect the rainforest, where we staged our own protest about the use of palm oil, which you can watch below! We hope you enjoy looking at the picture below of all our great learning. How can we protect the rainforest? The children staged a protest after creating their own billboards to go with it. We came up with a protest chant and staged the protest on the recky! |
