Spring 1

This half term we will consider the characteristics that all living things have. Recognising things that are living, were once alive and which were never alive. 

 There is a BBCBitesize link below which could be useful to introduce the subject content. We have also included a worksheet which could be used as a guide to talk about objects and discuss whether they have all the characteristics of living things. We have included other links to activities and the Mrs Gren acronym. Take a look and enjoy discussing objects in the world around us.
