What is a National Park?

 The 2 year 4 classes were amazing this week as they began to understand what a National Park is. Once the children were introduced to them, they soon realised that some of them have visited or been on holiday to one of the 15 national parks in The United Kingdom. They were able to describe what they saw and how big the landscape was as well as the animals they saw roaming around. 

Using their knowledge they located the different parks and had fun saying the Welsh names. Then they used their map of the parks to recap their map skills.  Fabulous lessons year 4, thank you 🤩

This has been particularly helpful when we've had numbers in the thousands and we have had to partition them.
