Science
This term the children will be learning about the classification of plants and animals. They will learn to recognise that living things can be grouped in a variety of ways and explore classification keys to help group, identify and name a variety of living things in their local and wider environment. We are all very excited about our forthcoming trip to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park on the 15th July!
Geography
We will undertake a field Study on our local area. We aim to understand geographical similarities and differences through the study of human and physical geography. We will use fieldwork to observe, measure record and present the human and physical features in the local area using a range of methods, including sketch maps, plans and graphs, and digital technologies.
Art
The children will find out about one of the great female artists of the 20th century, Sonia Delaunay. They will look at the artist’s early life, who and what she was influenced by, and how she developed her own distinctive style of art. They will explore how Sonia Delaunay branched out into the fashion world, and the legacy she left behind.
Computing
The children will be writing for different audiences. They will explore how font size and style can affect the impact of a text. Learn to use a simulated scenario to produce a news report and write for a community campaign.
PSHE
Bullying Matters
The children will learn to understand that their actions affect themselves and others. They will know how to recognise bullying and abuse in all its forms. We will develop strategies for getting support for themselves or for others at risk. They will learn the consequences of discrimination, teasing, bullying and aggressive behaviour (including cyberbullying, prejudice-based language, ‘trolling’).
