Launching our Big Question

Lesson: Topic

Class: Year 5 Year: 2021 - 2022

We launched our new Big Question this week: Rainforests - essential or desirable? We began our launch by getting to know the trees in our school environment - we used all our senses to explore them and even located our tree by feel only whilst being blindfolded! One of the reasons we decided trees were essential was because of their importance in removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere so our second task was to calculate the amount of carbon dioxide stored in our tree to work out just how useful it was to us at our school.
