| This is the termly plan for the Summer, Let's hope it gets a bit warmer so we can investigate outdoors!! |
Outline of some
areas of topic work to be covered:
Our topic for this term is Our World. We will be investigating the Roman way of life, an
environmental investigation, Plants and animals, forces and magnetism and painting
secret forests.
Information and
artefacts, which would be useful:
We would be grateful if you have any interesting
artefacts, photographs or books related to any of the above that we might
borrow, or if you have any personal experiences or expertise in these areas,
you might like to share with the class. Any internet research will be more
meaningful to your child if it is restricted to pictures or materials
specifically prepared for children.
|
Suggested ways in
which you can support Literacy and Numeracy:
It would be really helpful if you could practise mental
addition/subtraction, 2,3,4,5 times table for Year 3 and for Year 4 please in
addition the 6 and 8 times tables. Please help your child by singing, testing
and reciting the tables in a fun way.
Every child needs to bring their reading book to school every
day to read during our group reading sessions.
Your child might like to make a simple comment, relating
to likes/dislikes in their reading record. Asking questions such as “why did
he do that?” or “what do you think happens next?” would help them in
understanding text and aid comprehension work.
|
Other information:
P.E. is on a
Thursday – Your child needs to
bring their P.E. kit to change into for every lesson. Please make sure that
they bring a P.E. kit for lessons in the hall and for outside as we will try
and get out as much as possible in the fine weather!
Homework will cover activities from the Literacy and Numeracy
lessons, in addition to this there may be pieces of homework relating to
topic work.

Educational Trip!!!
Hello just a quick msg to say that class 5 will be visiting a synagogue on Monday and the homework, on this topic, that was handed in was excellent. Hopefully this will allow the children to ask some questions and find some of the artefacts that they had found through their research.
