Miss Burton and Mrs Johnson are very happy to be continuing your learning journey with you!
In this term, we will be reading ‘Floodland’ by Marcus Sedgwick - a gripping novel about a girl surviving in a devastated world. We will be using this book in our writing.
In Maths, we will be looking at place value, addition and subtraction up to six figures.
This term’s Geography topic is National Parks of Britain and we will be learning where they are and who they are for. Our new history topic is taking us back to the Ancient Greek era, and we will be comparing this time in history with other societies we have previously studied.
In Science, we will be exploring Earth and Space as well as extending our knowledge of forces. This is always an exciting topic!
In PE, we will be developing attacking and defending skills as well as practicing co-ordination in footwork and ball skills. Each class will be going swimming (further details will be provided about when each class will be going) and they will be having some Forest School sessions with our new headteacher, Mr Walmsley. Plus, our exciting trip to White Hall will involve building our school values and participating in a variety of outdoor and adventurous activities.
Homework will continue to be set (and due in) on a Friday. This will be a page from the Maths homework books and weekly spellings to practice ready for a mini test. In addition, children can always practice their personal spellings, go on Times Tables Rockstars and practise mathematics skills on a programme called My Maths.
We can’t wait for a brilliant Autumn Term!
Mrs Johnson and Miss Burton
