Thursday 2nd October
Outdoor learning at its best! Today in Whispers we made a river model. We dug our meandering rivers and used the natural environment around us to find our trees, greenery and to create a river bank. We made sure that our river had a river source and a river mouth and that it flowed downwards. We added labels to our models to show the parts of a river.
