To learn about Antarctica in more depth, Year 6 watched David Attenborough's 'Frozen Planet' and made notes about its climate, landscape and the animals that live there. They then researched the people who live there. The following lesson, they consolidated their learning by working in groups to prepare a presentation to share with their classmates.
Along with developing their confidence and presentation skills, Year 6 demonstrated their depth of understanding about the harsh climate and landscape of Antarctica.
