Y6<br />
Year 6 have been learning about inherited features, and adaptation/ natural<br />
selection within science. We have explored how any living creature develops<br />
characteristics that are handed down by their parents/ grandparents, and developed<br />
an understanding that some features are developed through environmental<br />
factors such as lifestyles, financial circumstances and learnt behaviours.<br />
Year 6’s had chosen 2 characters from Mr Men and predicted what features<br />
they might pass down to their children (inherited features). We then explored<br />
the features of specific animals and how natural selection and adaptation has<br />
changed these features over time.<br />
We have also begun looking through parts of Anne Frank’s diary, which was<br />
written during a 2-year period in WW2. We will be creating our own diary entries<br />
based on the features identified within Anne Frank’s extracts.
