Welcome to Year 1R
This half-term our topic is called 'Live and Let Live'. As you may be able to tell, it is all about Living things!
The big idea
What do living things such as animals and plants need in order to survive and grow? Do humans have the same needs? What is the difference between a living thing and something that has never been alive?
We are going to find the answers to these key questions in this unit.
In Science, we’ll be finding out:
• What animals and humans need to survive and grow
• How living and non-living things are different
• How humans and animals grow and change
• How to carry out a survey of living things
• How to attract wildlife to our environment
• How to sort living things into groups
In Technology, we’ll be finding out:
• How to make and design a bird feeder
In International, we’ll be finding out:
• About animals and plants from different countries
We will also be investigating materials, process and artists from different parts of Asia during International Arts week.
