Summer Term 'Dens and Dandelions'
This project has a forest skills and science focus which teaches
the children about plants, flowers, trees and creatures found in a
woodland habitat. At the heart of this project children will learn
how to write simple reports about their first hand experiences
and develop additional skills in explanation, information and
story writing.
In the Innovate Stage children apply their skills and understanding
by holding a fun day for Princess Dandelion and the woodland
goblins.
In this project the children will learn:
• About a woodland habitat and what lives and grows there;
• To use scientific and mathematical skills to observe, record,
and present information;
• How to care for a woodland habitat;
• How to use design technology skills to make structures and
prepare food;
• To work as part of a team;
• To develop their ICT and writing skills;
• About sustainability;
• How to write simple reports and explanations.
