Year one have been working very hard in their science lessons this week. The children have been exploring the habitats of the Arctic and Antarctica to discover how animals have adapted to their surroundings. Year one have identified that Polar Bears have adapted to their cold habitat in the Arctic because of their thick, white fur which keeps them warm and helps the Polar Bear to camouflage in the snow and ice. Year One have also discovered that Penguins have blubber under their skin to help keep them warm in their icy habitat in the Antarctic, as well as webbed feet so that they can walk on the slippery ice. Year One have made some fantastic fact files to show their learning! Great job, Year One!
