Year 1 loved learning about the continents and oceans. They especially enjoyed our lively songs, which helped them remember the names, sizes and locations of each one. During our ocean learning we wondered together which ocean sailors might find the most difficult to travel through.  Most children though it would be the cold Southern Ocean – a great example of their collective reasoning.

The children had lots of fun playing a game with our continent cards. One partner hid a continent card, and the other partner had to guess the missing continent.  It was lovely to see the children referring to their knowledge notes to support their ideas and share what they had learned.
