Topic

Extreme Earth

 

 

We recycled lots of materials to create models which show our understanding of climate change and what can be done about it. We discussed "net zero" and how we can help reduce greenhouse gases and protect the planet.

World War One

 

 

Our first topic is World War One. We are learning about its causes, where the fighting took place, life in the trenches, life back home, how propaganda was used and how the Treaty of Versailles eventually led to the origins of World War Two. Here are some interesting websites about our topic:
