Our geography project this term was North America. After identifying the countries in this region, children in Y4 researched and presented all they had learnt about the population, landscape, environment, fauna and flora and climate of North America. They organised their findings in different ways and were challenged to design a travel guide and create fact files as well as to choose and find out about the life of someone that inspired them in this part of the world.
Their projects were amazing and they worked extremely hard to achieve all their goals. It was a pleasure to see them present their projects to the class so enthusiastically and clearly, and there were some a striking illustrations and models amongst them, too. I hope that you enjoy them as much as we did.
