SUMMER TERM 2020

AFRICAN ADVENTURE!

What a huge continent Africa is!  We will start by re-capping where Africa is and looking at the countries that make up this wondeful part of the world. 

As I know how much you all like animals we will then look at Africa's 'Big Five' that you may see on safari.  We will look at their habitats and what they eat, helping us to construct food chains.  We will also use the amazing patterns on the animal fur to make prints.

We will compare where we live in Southport to African capitals such as Nairobi in Kenya and also traditional villages on the Masai Mara.  We will study the culture of the Masai people and have a go at making a traditional tribal necklace as well as a clay pot decoarted in an African style.  

We will also listen to African music and this will inspire us to create our own African dance and have a go at some drumming!
