Welcome to Year 3
Autumn 1 2022 Flow
From humble beginnings the river flows down the mountain and into the sea. Pull on your wellies and wade right in. How deep does it go and how fast does it travel? What soil types can be found by the river? Which animals make their homes there? Lets get down to the river bank and find out. Now hop on an imaginery boat and travel on some of the world's majestic rivers- The Ganges, The Thames, The Amazon and the Nile- and keep a journal as you follow thie course. Time to investigate. Let's meander through the world of rivers, taking a dip into their watery world.
You will find additional home learning ideas in the documents section of our webpage.
