In lessons earlier in the week, we looked at evaluating and we did this in the context of looking at the role played by zoos as man-made habitats. We looked at and discussed the negative aspects and the positive ones, then we came to a reasoned conclusion about what we thought of zoos. The children worked really well and there was debating of a high standard going in in the different groups. This week’s super stars were:

  • Ben (Year 1)
  • Emily G. (Year 1)
  • Reegan (Year 2)
  • Evie (Year 3)
  • Zak (Year 4)
  • Ruby (Year 5)
  • Wojciech (Year 6)

Well done all of you!
