Year 2

Year 2 have been learning about the structure of the rain forest. Below is a diagram of the structure and a typed up explanation of what has been drawn. 

"This is our picture of the rainfoest. It shows the four layrs of the rainforest like the forst floor, the under canpy, the canpy and finally the emergent layer. The sun does not get to touch the forst floor and it is very dark so that’s why we coloured it in black. It’s a bit lighter in the under canpy because a littl bit more light gets there. Trees grow taller in the canopy layr because they get more sun. But the layr with the tallest trees is the emergent layer because thos trees pop out of the canopy layr. They get the most sun of all and they have a shampe like an umbrella!"
