Mountains


Our topic for term 2 was Mountains which covered aspects of geography, science and the environment.
We managed to set up a link with a British School in Kathmandu, Nepal and have been communicating by e mail with our buddies. It is interesting to contrast the lifestyle and climate of a mountainous region with our own, although it is clear from the e mails that children enjoy the same things wherever they live in the world!


We investigated how fold mountains form by using cloth.




We even had a go at a mountain range!
We simulated a volcanic eruption with food colouring, baking soda and vinegar on a model volcano.
