1st Half Summer Term:
Our focus for writing this half term will be inspired by stories from ‘Into the Jungle’ by Katherine Rundell, which looks at the backstories of some of the main characters of ‘The Jungle Book’, and our humanities work, where we will be learning about the Rainforest.
In our Maths lessons, we will continue to focus weekly on the four basic operations of maths as well as daily times tables work. We will also be continuing our focus on decimals and discovering how they are closely linked to fractions. We will also spend some of our lessons looking at money and solving problems that involve money and fractions.
In Science, we will be thinking about humans and animals. We will spend time thinking about the human digestive system, animal food chains and how animals adapt to their environment.
In Physical Education lessons, we will begin to develop our tennis skills as well as developing our orienteering ability.
2nd Half Summer Term:
Our focus for writing this half term will continue to be inspired by our humanities work, where we will be learning about the Rainforest.
In our Maths lessons, we will continue to focus on the four basic operations of maths as well as daily times tables work. We will also be focussing on calculating with different units of measure, looking at the different properties of shapes and data handling.
In Science, we will be thinking about animals and the habitats they live in. We will spend time learning about the different types of habitats animals can live in and how they have adapted to live in those environments.
In Physical Education lessons, we will continue to develop our tennis skills alongside working on our athletics ready for Sports Day.
