Year 5 have made a fantastic start to their Science topic ‘Humans and animals overtime’. So far we have learnt: the theory of evolution and how it was discovered, how fossils are formed and provide evidence of evolution and animal kingdoms and how they have developed overtime.

To help embed our learning, we have taken part in a range of fun activities. We used a variety of equipment (beaks) to pick up small objects (insects) to understand how finches helped Darwen to discover evolution, we grouped toy animals according to their kingdom, we played an outdoor game that showed the process of evolution, and we used bread and animal shaped sweets to show how fossils are formed- We especially loved eating the sweets after!

We are really enjoying the topic so far!
