Cedar

This term Cedar Class will explore The Americas. Starting in the USA, we will pass through different biomes, learning about the landscapes and creatures that live there, whilst delving into rivers and mountains. After half term we will leave North America and head to the wilds of Brazil, finding out about the rainforest and the impact of developement on the people who live there, as well as the rest of the world.

We will also look at the amazing discoveries of Charles Darwin, examining skeletons and starting to find out about how our own DNA can give us clues to our past. 

In English, we will explore the exciting world of The Jungle Book in Rudyard Kipling's classic tale of a young boy, brought up by wolves. This will tie with our study of Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book, as we begin to look for the clues that link these two timeless tales.
