Which habitat is my animal best suited to and why?
Year one and two have been learning about biomes. They have spent two weeks exploring three biomes (rainforest, desert and tundra) and the animals that can live there. This week they wrote about how their animal was adapted to its habitat. Great learning everyone!
Fighting fit firefighters
