deserts

As geographers this week, year 1 have been discovering facts about deserts.

Lots of year 1 thought that a desert had sand and it was always somewhere hot.

Did you know Antarctica is the worlds largest desert?

We found out that Antarctica is the coldest, windiest and driest place on earth.

We looked at the Sahara desert  and compared it to Antarctica.

Year 1 completed a Venn diagram to identify the features of a hot desert and a cold desert. We found out that lots of things are the same in both deserts.

We had lots of discussion about what the deserts are like.

Phoebe thinks that neither of the deserts are nice as one is too hot and one is too cold.
