Our Topic

This term our termly topic is Frozen Kingdoms.  This project teaches children about the polar regions, Arctic and Antartic. We look at environmental factors that shape and influence them and also look at the effects of climate change on the regions today. We look at the animals and people that inhabit these areas, as well as looking at significant events of the past, including the sinking of the Titanic and the famous explorers who reached the North and South Poles in the early 20th Century. 

It also links with our Art topic, Inuit Art, which has been looking at the work of significant inuit artists and the different techniques they use. The children will try soap sculpting, stenciling and printing, before deciding on a piece of artwork of their own using their favoured technique.
