Today we started our science lesson with a quiz on Charles Darwin. Over the past few weeks, the children had written questions about Darwin and then found the answers to some of those questions. We then put the questions together in a quiz for everyone to attempt. They showed a good knowledge of Darwin, although they did get a few questions wrong! We then talked about inherited and environmental features - identifying what features we might inherit from our parents and grandparents and what features can be changed (cutting your hair). The children then used Mr Men and Little Miss characters to create offspring for them, using some of the features from the Mr Man and some from the Little Miss character. During this lesson we began to look at how plants have adapted to their environments. To start, we looked at cacti - we watched a clip on cactus adaptations before recording some of the adaptations cacti had made and how it helps the plant.
