Listen to this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6DSMZ8b3LE It is very catchy and will help you learn the name of the continents.

Explore the attached PowerPoint which has information on the continents. Over the next few weeks we will be creating a fact file about the continents.  I have attached an example for you to print or you could create your own, or use your home learning book. Today we will be looking at Africa – I have attached a second PowerPoint with lots of facts about Africa and here is a link to some videos too https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/class-clips-video/pshe-eyfs-ks1-go-jetters-continent-of-africa/zfv7d6f.  Include pictures in your fact files too!
