Dear Magpies,
Term 5
Dear Parents/Carers
Literacy/Topic
This term our topic is, ‘What if Samuel Pepys never wrote a diary?’, allowing us to learn about the Great Fire of London. In our Literacy lessons we’ll be using both fiction and non-fiction texts to help us write newspaper reports and diary entries. We will research the Great Fire of London, compare differences between the present day and 1666 and create our own Tudor houses.
Maths
In Maths this term we will learn about fractions (finding a quarter, half and three-quarter).
Science
Our focus for this term will be ‘plants’. We’ll be looking at seeds and bulbs and how they grow into plants. We are lucky enough to have an outdoor area where we will get a chance to do our own planting!
P.E
P.E. will be taught on Tuesday and Wednesday. School uniform should be worn into school and children will get changed before their P.E lesson. Please bring P.E kit (plimsolls/trainers, shorts/tracksuits, T-shirt and jumper) to stay at school.
Spellings
Spellings will be sent out on a Friday and a spelling test will be completed the following Friday.
Please do let me know if you have any queries
Miss Swain
