Class 2 have been busy in Science learning about growth in animals. They have been learning about the differences between adults and offspring in mammals and reptiles. They learnt how mammals often look after their young for a long time whilst reptiles often lay eggs and leave their offspring to look after themselves.
Here are some photos of Class 2 measuring growth rates in humans and thinking about the factors that effect the rate of growth in humans. They discussed diet, lifestyle and genes as factors effecting growth.
