We compared the climate of the UK with the Sahara Desert today 🌍☀️🌧️
Using graphs, pupils analysed the huge differences in temperature and rainfall — and used this data to help explain why these places look and feel so different. 📊💡🌵 #IDL #Geography #Africa #DataHandling
African animal sunset silhouette art 🌅🦁
We explored African wildlife and used a variety of media to create bold sunset backgrounds with silhouette animals. The results were stunning — and the creativity was off the scale! 🎨🔥 #ArtEd #IDL #Africa #CreativeLearning
Pupils created their own Top Trumps cards to showcase their knowledge of African landscapes and climates! 🌍☀️ They compared temperatures, rainfall, animal life, and even gave each location an adventure rating! 🦁🌧️ Such a fun and creative way to learn about geography! 📚✨ #IDL #Geography #Africa #Fun
We are learning to recognise animals by their patterns! Using oil pastels, we created our own colourful animal patterns. 🐆🦌 #IDL #Art
