Please do keep reading whilst you are at home. There are plenty of ways to access books online. These links are on our class page under the reading tab. The first is very useful for reading about your favourite interests and hobbies or maybe finding out more about the weather and climate, you may also want to do some further reading about oceans and continents:

Topic
Now that we know all about Oceans and Continents, it's time to learn about Climate. Countries have different types of ‘climate’ around the world; they can be hot or cold. Weather is the day to day changes that we see happen. So, you may have noticed that the weather in Liverpool has been very sunny over the last few weeks, but today it is cold and raining. Climate is the average weather usually taken over 30 years for a particular place.
Look at the World Map below. Can you spot any continents that have a cold climate? Can you spot any continents that have a warm climate? What type of climate do we have in our country?
For your task, I want you to imagine you are going on holiday to a country with a hot climate. Before you go, you will need to pack your suitcase. Use the suitcase template attached. What items will you pack for your holiday? Draw the items in your suitcase. Remember they must suit the climate at your destination.
Now imagine you are going on holiday to a country with a very cold climate. Use the suitcase template again. What items will you pack for this holiday? Will they be the same or different items?
Here are some examples to give you ideas. You may think of a lot more.
