Yesterday, Class 6 had a visit from Miss Denham’s pet dog (Alfie the Cavapoo). As a class, they discussed his inheritance coming from both his Poodle and Cavalier King Charles Spaniel parents. In small groups, Class 6 children then investigated Alfie, identifying the characteristics that he had and classifying these as either coming from his Poodle or Cavalier King Charles Spaniel ancestry. The children used various skills to determine these traits.
