Geography: building a river 🏞️

This afternoon year 3/4 started their new Geography topic ‘Misty mountains, winding rivers’. 

We began the lesson exploring rivers and journey the make. 

We learnt that a river is split into 3 key parts:

The source: where it begins 

The tributaries: smaller streams that join with the river 

The mouth: where the river opens into a large body of water

Once we had covered this, we then worked in groups to create our own 3D models of a river system using resources such as cardboard and clay.
