Autumn Term

This half-term, we will be learning about ‘The Great Fire of London’; we will become historians and explore how life was in London, 1666. The children will be looking at the causes and effects of the great fire, and discovering its lasting legacy. ​

After half-term, we will be keen geographers looking at the driving question ‘How can we save our oceans?’. We will be exploring how plastic pollution is impacting our oceans and how animals depend on the ocean for their habitat. ​

Maths

During the first half-term, we will be looking at Place Value. We will be exploring the small steps of reading and writing numbers to 100, partitioning numbers to 100 and recognising tens and ones. We will be comparing and ordering numbers and objects, as well as learning to count in 2s, 5s, 10s and 3s. 

English

In English, we will be exploring the very exciting text 'The Disgusting Sandwich' by Gareth Edwards and Hannah Shaw. We will be building up to writing our own narratives based on the story. 

RE

In RE, we will be exploring the question 'Who is Jewish and how do they live?'. We will handle a variety of Jewish artefacts, and look closely at a variety of Jewish traditions and practices.
