Being a Technologist – A long time ago
What technology could be used to trap a dragon?
This term, we will be learning about dragons and dinosaurs and then go on to explore traditional tales.
What do dragon’s live in? Well, a lair has appeared in Oak Tree so do beware! Through our carefully chosen texts, we will enjoy re-enacting stories about Zog by Julia Donaldson and think about how we can make dragon footprints. Putting our technology hat on, we will be building castles using different materials and thinking about how we can make a trap to catch a dragon too.
Oak Tree class will also be learning about Chinese New Year, trying Chinese food and finding out about Chinese traditions. We will be asking lots of questions about dinosaurs too. This will give Oak Tree Class lots of opportunity to explore the natural world around them and recognise some environments that are different to the one in which they live.
