Year 1 - Giraffes
In DT we have been exploring how adding weight to a structure can make it more stable. In science we have been thinking about seasons. We observed our oustide area, looking for signs of winter. Please help me to look outside first thing in the morning and last thing before bed. What do I notice? Please discuss that in winter the hours of daylight are shorter and help me to notice it is darker for longer.
