Summer 1 Term

Our topic for Summer 1 is “Earth and space”.

For the first half of the Summer term our learning will be focussed around our Science topic of Earth and space! We will have lots of different opportunities to explore Earth and Space and we will have a visit from the school library service arranged for early in the term.

 

Here are some age appropriate books that the children may enjoy.

In English we will be writing a letter of invitation, a mysterious setting description and a balanced argument. In maths we will be focussing our learning on shape, space and measure, decimals and percentages and position and direction.

In History the children will be learning about the ancient Greeks and their way of life. In Science we will be exploring Earth and Space and recapping previous learning from lower KS2. In RSHE we will cover a variety of topics including what is prejudice and what should I do if I encounter prejudice. During our RE sessions we will be focussing on 'What does it mean to be a muslim in Britain today?'

Our topic for Summer 2 is focussed around our history topic of the Ancient Greeks.
