Year 5 Animals including Humans

Date: 24th Feb 2022 @ 7:58pm

Our first lesson of Science this term was a recap of 'Animals including Humans' from Year 4. To do this, we investigated food chains and the human body. The children had remembered lots of important things about our digestive system and how to look after it (for example, drinking water and eating food that is high in fibre). 

We also started to investigate the focus for this year's learning of 'Animals including Humans', which is to be able to describe the changes as humans develop to old age. The children had to put a series of pictures in an order and explain why they had chosen that order - all of them decided on youngest to oldest. We played a 'Spot the difference' game to see how how appearance changes over time and also stretched ourselves to think about the physical changes.

Year 5 are extremely excited to learn about this topic!
