Year 2 - Birch Class, Our Changing Bodies

As part of Relationships Week, Birch Class started their learning by thinking about how our bodies change from a baby to an elderly person. We discussed the human timeline and also compared the needs of humans at each stage of their life. 

 

Babies are the most needy, needing help with basic tasks such as eating and dressing compared to children who are developing independence and taking responsibility for more things. We did find however that the older you get, the likelier it was that some of that help and support may be needed again. 

 

We took parts in lots of activities and had fun learning and talking about the similarities and differences.
