For our final term before the summer holidays, we are going to be finding out all things sea and seaside! 

We will learn about what animals live in the sea and some of the special features that they have (e.g. fish have gills and octopus have tentacles). We will be exploring what creatures we might find in rock pools and along the seashore. We will be talking about what we can do to protect our beaches and oceans, helping to keep them nice and clean. Finally, we will discuss how we stay safe in the sun/on the beach as well as what we enjoy doing at the seaside - if you have any beach photos please send them in on tapestry for us to share/add to our display!

Supporting your child at home

• Share our 'Big Ideas' resource - discussing the key question's and vocabulary (see below or attached PDF for clearer version).
• Share any 'under the sea' or 'beach' related stories you might have at home or find in the library. 
• Use Google Earth to look at images of seas and oceans around the world.
• Take a look at our weekly blogs to see what we are learning about in school
• Take a trip to the beach for a day out, you could go shell hunting, build sandcastles, investigate a rock pool or enjoy some seaside activities (fish and chips! Yummy!)
