Y2's trip to Martin Mere
Lesson: Science
Class: Year 2 Year: 2021 - 2022
Year 2 have had a great ‘submersive’ learning experience today at Martin Mere. They began the day identifying wildlife that lives on the surface of a pond. Then the children made their way to the pond dipping area where they got stuck right in and mastered the art of pond dipping.
They were amazed with the quantity of new animal they found living beneath the surface. All the animals came in all shapes and sizes, specially adapted to what area of the pond they lived in. Once the children filled their observation trays with pond life, they then identified each animal using a check list. The children then took part in a food chain activity and discovered that each of these pond creatures play a huge part in local food chains. They used the vocabulary such as producer, consumer, prey, predator to explain their food chain.
A little while after, the children searched on land for mammals and birds habitats, they compared how each animal was specifically adapted to their habitat. For Example, the otter was adapted to its habitat as it has webbed hind feet and had a steam-lined body to fish and swim. The children also learned that a mammal that was predator in the food chain had eyes adapted at the front of their skull, whereas mammals who are prey in the food chain have eyes at the side of their head.
They children all had a fun-filled break on the adventure playground then ended the day identifying different species of birds and ducks around the wet lands.
