For the last half term, the three intermediate classes have been learning about the Galapagos Islands, Evolution and Adaptation. Also how animals got to the Galapagos Islands and evolved or adapted to the environment. But before that,how the Islands got created. The Islands got created by explosions under the sea and the explosions pushed up hot molten rock. When the Islands got old they start falling under their own weight because the earths core couldn't support it and it will start collapsing. and also in the future.

Some interesting things I have learnt about the Galapagos Islands is that the Marine Iguana use to be a Land animal but is now a animal that can swim in the sea and breath on land. Also the Giant Tortoise is one of the biggest animals in the Islands. Another amazing thing is that there is a finch that can use a stick to lure grubs out of a tree.



The next topic I would like to learn about would be Planes and aerodynamics or Cars and the history of Cars. Also transport before Cars were invented.
