In Year 2 the children have been exploring their new topic; ‘Why are humans not like Tigers?’.

The topic focuses on scientific investigation where the children will develop an understanding of both humans and animals, working towards identifying the similarities and differences.

The topic will involve a school trip to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park on Tuesday 16th September 2014 as well as visiting the local area to investigate animals in their habitats.

The children will take part in Art and Design projects including collages, oil pastel pictures and designing and making a Wallaby house.

The children will also explore fiction and non-fiction texts linked to wild animals to create information texts and animal stories.
