Term 5

Another busy term ahead and one where the children will be able to practise and rehearse their learning across the curriculum. A trip to Burghley House is up ahead too!

In Maths this term we embed our knowledge of key learning so far before delving deeper into the world of fractions! 

In English, we start by explore a range of texts before completing a very exciting book review of one of our favourite stories. 

There are so many exciting opportunities this term as we look ahead to the wider curriculum too. From word processing in Computing, developing ocarina skills in Music, drawing techniques in Art to Athletics in PE and The Great Fire of London in History. 

WOW! We are so excited! 

Art - How is texture presented in drawing?

Science - Are the basics of all animals the same?

History - What was the lasting impact?

PE (1) - Why does communication help you succeed as a team?

PE (2) - What can you do to improve your own performance?

RE - Who was Jesus according to Christians?

PSHE - Is everyone part of a community?

Music - Is it always better to play at a faster tempo?

Computing - How can I change how a text looks on a computer?

Music

We have started the term retrieving our ocarina knowledge and skills from Term 3. This week we practiced our playing technique and were able to play as a large group, in time, together! Great work as musicians! 

History

Exciting times in History as we explore the Great Fire of London! This week the children looked at different sources to see which gave us the best evidence to prove what happened is true. The children worked as Historians to use the sources which help make sense of the past. Great work!

PE

In PE this term we are having fun doing athletics. We have been learning how to jump for distance.

Maths

In maths, we have been learning about fractions. We have have been using practical equipment to find half, a quarter and a third of different numbers.
