    Topic outline:

    Literacy: In this we will be


    writing a story about an adventure
    that leaves someone stranded alone
    on an exotic desert island. We
    will also be writing messages in
    bottles to send home from someone
    that is stuck alone on an island.

    Mathematics: In maths we will be
    learning both a mental and written
    method for addition and
    subtraction. Also we will be
    looking at measurement and
    distance which links with the
    distant of different places around
    the world.

    Science: In science we will be
    investigating the different
    species of animals that we would
    find living on a desert island.
    From that we will then group, sort
    and classify those animals. We
    will also be investigating what
    humans and animals need in order
    to survive on an island.
