Therfield First School
“Bringing Learning to Life”
Duckpuddle Class (KS1)
Science in Key Stage 1
In Duckpuddle Class, through our exciting topic-based curriculum, we learn about the following science topics:
- Animals Including Humans
- Seasonal Changes
- Everyday Materials
- Plants
- Living things and their Habitats
- Working Scientifically
Science topics are often launched through exciting BIG BANGS that enthuse the children about their future learning. In Duckpuddle Class, this may involve a walk around our local village spotting signs of Spring, and then using our observations to create a seasonal display board in the classroom.
At the end of one of our Animal topic, we enjoy a wonderful Class Trip to Shepreth Wildlife Park. We travel on the train and see many of the animals we learn about in their real-life habitat.
Lessons are highly interactive and wherever possible, are taught outside; containing as many awe and wonder moments as possible.
