Year 4/5 learnt all about Crazy Climates last half term!  We studied the causes and effects of climate change and global warming, including melting ice caps, droughts and floods!  As part of our topic, we went to Chopwell Woods to find out about how trees can help prevent climate change and other things we could do to help!

 

First we made a human line chart to show the increase in the Earth's temperature.

We also went on a nature walk to find as many different tree leaves as we could, then we learnt about the carbon that trees store.  Then Chopwell Woods came to us!  We learnt even more about the environment!

We had to find as many differnt kinds of trees as we could in our Forest School, we had to find new trees, old trees, trees that we could use as a wind break!  It was very difficult, but fun!

We even made board games about our knowledge of Crazy Climates!  Watch this space for pictures of our finished products!
