This term we are learning about:
Maths
In Maths we look at different areas throughout the week, which could be, number, fractions, calculation and measurement. We continue to use a challenge based system and work through the level of difficulty suited to each child. We then follow up with either a DIRT or MUD question the following week. On Fridays we go over CLICs, Learn Its and SAFE from Big Maths.
Reading
This term we are reading the book 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' where we will use different skills such as retrieval, inference and prediction. Lots of reading at home will support the children's work in school!
Writing
Our writing this term will be focused on writing informal letters using the fiction text 'Meerkat Mail' and writing non chronological reports using the 'Meerkats' information text. At first we will explore the text before focusing on word and sentence level skills. The final week will be writing and editing to produce a final written piece.
Science
Our topic this half term is all about light and shadows and using the vocabulary opaque, translucent and transparent.
Geography and History
Our geography this half term is focusing on looking at the water cycle and features of a river, in particular learning about the River Tweed.
In history, we are exploring all about the Industrial Revolution, famous inventors and their inventions as well as contributions made in the Midlands.
