This week, Year 6 have been investigating the impact of deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest. Our first lesson focused on the negative aspects such as habitat loss and the impact cutting down trees has on the climate emergency. We then went on to explore why deforestation is taking place such as space for cattle farms and creating space for a growing population. The children created word art showing the negative and positive effects. We will be using what we have learnt within a class debate!
