Science
You are going to be a soil scientist! Use the picture to learn about the different types of soil and then investigate your garden and local area to find out what tyes of soil are around here!
Rocks and Soils
Have a look at the information sheets about different types of rock.
Have you got any of these rocks in your home?
Have you ever seen any of these rocks when you have been out and about?
You will have to use your imagination when it comes to what each rock might feel like if you've never touched it before. The picture and description will give you some clues.
Fill in the sheets to give information about each type of rock.

Can you find out from the information provided who Mary Anning was and why she is a significant person?

Have a go at presenting your findings giving interesting facts about your person as well as pictures. you could include 'Did you know facts' about your person.
As part of our Rocks and Soils Topic, let's explore fossils! Use the link and video below to carry out research. You might have books of your own to use as well or you could visit the online library (link in the reading folder).
What are fossils? What are the different types of fossils? What can we learn from fossils? Present your ideas how you prefer...a fact file? a presentation? a non-chronological report? a diagram? Enjoy!
Have a walk around your local area. Take some paper and a pencil with you and draw some of the plants that you see on your walk.
Can you name any of the plants you see?
Can you spot any places where there are very few plants growing? Why might this be?
How do you think the plants got there?
