Term 2 learning

This term, the children are diving into a range of exciting learning experiences across the curriculum.

In Writing, we will begin by exploring Aaron Slater, Illustrator, where the children will write a recount of the story. We will then use How to Find Gold as inspiration for persuasive writing, encouraging the children to persuade others to join them on an exciting adventure. Finally, we will watch the animation Pudding Lane and use it to write explanation texts about how the Great Fire of London started and spread.

In Maths, we will consolidate our learning in place value, addition and subtraction. The children will revisit key skills, develop their confidence and practise applying their mathematical knowledge to solve problems.

Our science lessons will build on our learning about habitats from last term as we explore microhabitats and discover the fascinating world of minibeasts.

In geography, the children will investigate hot and cold places around the world, comparing Kenya to the UK and learning about the similarities and differences in climate, landscape, and way of life.

In RE, the children will be learning about prophecy and promises, exploring their meaning within the Catholic faith and how they guide us in our lives today.
