Science

This term we are going to be learning about Animals inluding Humans. 
We will be covering the following objectives.

• identify and name a variety of common animals including fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals
• identify and name a varitey of common animals that are carnivores, herbivores and omnivores.
• describe and compare the structure of a variety of common animals (fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals, including pets)
• identify, name, draw and label basic parts of the human body and say which part of the body is associated with each sense.

We started our unit of work but identify different parts of the human body.

The children drew a self portrait and identified different features of their face. We discussed what some of these features are used for. 

This lead on to use learning about each of the five senses. The children conducted a listening walk around the school, used their eyes to identify objects hidden within picture, touched different objects in school and recorded how they felt, smelt different products and tasted different items. It was lots of fun.

We identifed different common animals and sorted them into the five different animals groups.
