Cool+PrimaryFoundationYear 1EnglishScienceBiologyEnvironmentalBiodiversitySustainability
Lesson Summary
Students explore the features of invertebrates using descriptive words (adjectives). They begin by thinking about how adjectives help us to explain and understand everyday objects, before applying descriptive words to images of invertebrates. They are then given a range of adjectives and are asked to invent an invertebrate based on these words. They create a 3D model of this invertebrate and share it with the class through a gallery walk format.
