Our final topic for Summer 2 in Reception is…

‘The Jungle!’

Throughout this topic we will transport ourselves to the hot, leafy, rainy jungle where we will learn all about what lives there and compare this environment to our own.Β 

To help us become real jungle explorers, we will listen to and talk about non-fiction books all about the jungle to help us develop a deep familiarity with new knowledge and vocabulary!

We would love to find out about what you already know about the jungle!

Answer the question below on our class blog…

  5. My favourite animal is a lizard 🦎 it is part of the squamate reptiles with over 7000 species. I love the lizards because they are fast and have different colours. There are 3 types of the lizards in Uk I have seen two of them. Common lizard, sand lizards and the slow worm lizard which are protected under wildlife and countryside act. 1981. On Half term we meet Dan O’Neill in the zoo he is a zoologist and he showed us pictures of animals in the jungle. He has visited Brazil and talked about the Amazon rainflorest which is the largest tropical rainflorest famed for its biodiversity. He showed videos of the Jaguar and I can’t wait to see his work which is called Giant’s series on the TV.

  11. I love the jungle! Because there are elephants, lions, tigers, rhinos and snakes. They are big and dangerous! There are also poisonous frogs and some of them can be not poisonous. One day, I am going to Chitwan National Park in Nepal, where my Daddy is from. We are going to ride on an elephant, which is like riding a horse but big as a house! And we can see rhinos when we ride on them. My favourite animal is a baby elephant. They are small and cute and bigger than a mouse. I am going to take my sunglasses. And Daddy Bunny.

  12. In the jungle we can find different plants, trees and animals. My favourite animal is Giraffes πŸ¦’because they have very long neck.πŸ¦πŸ’πŸ˜πŸ¦πŸ†πŸ¦“πŸ¦ŽπŸπŸ¦œπŸπŸŒ³πŸŒΏβ˜˜οΈ
