Steve Backshall has been so impressed with the children’s research, so he sent them another letter and rucksack – this time full of animals and books. He also set them another task! This time he wanted them to find out about animal life in the rainforest and the children excelled themselves as animal researchers!

Following on from their research, the children created their very own non-fiction page using all their knowledge about the features of a non-fiction book. It has been a pleasure to see the children’s creativity shine, as they continue to take ‘ownership’ of their journals and style their own pages.
