This half term, our topic is 'London'.
In Literacy we will be writing a poem called' Walking Around London' which is will follow the same pattern, rhythm and rhyme as 'Walking Through the Jungle'. We will also be imagining we are a known character from a story who has visited London and write a diary in role. Finally we will be writing lots of facts about London to share our knowledge. Children are already enthusiastic to talk about their experiences in London.
In Numeracy, we are continuing to develop our skills around adding and subtracting, doubling and halving and also finding the time to o'clock and half past.
In History we will be learning about the Gun powder plot linked to Bonfire Night and also talk about how we can keep ourselves safe. Safety is our PSHE theme.
In Science, we will be exploring materials we see everyday, naming and sorting ones with similar properties. We compare the materials we have in our home with those at Buckingham Palace!
In Geography, we will be developing our map skills and locating places such as Leeds and London.
In RE our theme is 'Why do we care about people' and we will be discussing who and what we care for and how we might show them that we care.
In RE we thought about the people who we care about and what we do to care for them. Do you like our Caring Tree?
