Spring 2
Our Christian Values are
Our class novels-
English-
Our reading and writing are going to be based on the book 'The Curious Case of the Missing Mammoth’. Our main writing outcome will be to write a story using the structure of our book but changing our character. During the lead up to our final piece, we will work on different tasks such as recounts, diary entries, posters and description writing. We will be progressing with our SPAG knowledge throughout.
We will have phonics, handwriting and guided reading sessions throughout the week.
We will be using Pathways to spell for our spelling lessons as well as continuing with Twinkl phonics.
Maths
As mathematicians will use concrete, pictorial, and abstract approaches with plenty of opportunities to develop our fluency, understanding and reasoning using the White Rose maths resources.
We will be consolidating our multiplication and division knowledge before moving on to fractions, money and time.
Science
We will be looking at living things and their habitats.
RE
Our two questions for this half term are…
What happens in church at Easter?
Why was the empty tomb good news for Christians?
Our RE comes from the Diocese of Chester planning and the Understanding Christianity scheme of work. Our lessons and worships allow the children to develop and express their thoughts and reflections.
PE
Our PE comes from the Complete PE scheme of work. It offers a variety of games and learning for children across all key stages. This half term we are going to be working on our skills for jumping and ball skills.
Topic
Delamere or Daintree: where will you go?
We will be looking at two different types of forests- one from England and one from Australia. We will look at various attributes to both whilst thinking about the similarities and difference, where in the world they are (which continents do they belong in), human and physical aspects.
We will use a variety of sources to learn and expand our knowledge.
