 English

In English lessons, we will be developing vocabulary through narrative and autobiographical writing, using the class texts The Rooftoppers and Pig heart Boy, and organising ideas cohesively in explanatory and discursive writing.  

Maths

In Maths, we will be learning about place value in numbers up to 10,000,000, including rounding and using formal written addition and subtraction methods with these numbers to solve problems

Science

In Science lessons, we learnt about electricity in the first half term and are currently finding out about the heart and circulatory system.  A knowledge organiser for ‘Electricity’ and 'The Circulatory System', are available on the school website, outlining the key information that will be taught.

Just after half term, we were lucky to get the opportunity to participate in a heart dissection, as part of our science topic based on the circulatory system.

RE

Our RE lessons have had a Christian focus for the first half-term and we looked at answering the question: How do Christians show their belief that Jesus is God incarnate?  This half term, we are learning about Islam and answering the question: How does tawhid create a sense of belonging to the Muslim community?

History - Victorians & The Suffragettes 

In History, we will be studying local history, looking in particular at the role of women in Victorian society. Our studies will focus on the role of influential women, such as Elizabeth Garrett Anderson, who was among the first women to qualify as a doctor and played a significant role in the suffragette movement. After half term, we will extend our local studies to look at the impact of conflict on our locality.

Geography - The Amazing Americas

 In Geography, we are looking at both North and South America - learning about the climate zones, physical and human features, etc.
