  During the lesson, the children identified where Peru is and its capital city: Lima.  They had to guess how many times bigger Peru was than Great Britain. Do you know? Peru is actually four times bigger than Great Britain but has half the population. Why you ask? The land is mainly desert, the Andes are to the East and the coast is to the west.  They were then given 6 photos of Lima to discuss and compare - 3 were from urban Lima and 3 from rural Lima. The children were shocked how the people in rural Lima had to live without any clean water. Did you know Lima is permanently in fog. People who live there need to grow their own food but in order to do this they need water. Ingeniously, they have designed fog nets which trap the water from the fog.

We’ve spent a few minutes this afternoon kick-starting them. Please encourage them to read a little at home and ask to see their journals from time to time as we will do in school too.  As Dr Seuss says, “The more you read, the more things you will know.  The more that you learn, the more places you will go!”
