Under the Sea - Similarities & Differences

We have started a new topic all about ‘Under the Sea’.

 

To start off our topic we have been exploring

Similarities and Differences

 

We have been looking closely at the markings on the Clown Fish.  There are lots of other fish that also have stripes.

 

We talked about the similarities and differences between the stripes.  This is what we noticed:

 

*  The stripes are different colours

*  Some of the fish have 2 colours and some of the fish have 3 or 4 colours.

*  Some fish have more stripes

*  Some of the stripes go up and down and some go across the body. 

New Vocabulary

We used the words horizontal and vertical to describe these different stripes.
