This page is dedicated to all the exciting things we will be doing in class this year.

Term 1 2025

Topic

Our topic this term is: How old is Ancient Egypt?

Owls will be learning all about the Ancient Egyptians this term. From Egyptian gods to Pharaohs and hieroglyphics, make sure you ask your child about their learning and see if they can retell you some of these fabulous stories.

Maths

In maths, we're going to be focusing place value, then we'll move on to some addition and subtraction.

Science

Our Big Idea in Science this term is ‘There are forces that can act upon objects; sometimes without there being any contact’.

PE

PE will be on a Wednesday morning and Thurday afternoon. Children should bring in their PE kit (Plimsolls/trainers, shorts/tracksuit bottoms, t-shirt and jumper) at the beginning of the term or on PE days. Like previous years, Children will be getting changed in school.  Please note, children with earrings need to be able to remove them themselves prior to PE.

Reading, spellings and times tables

Please try to read with your child every day, either their book from school or a book of your choice from home. Writing a note confirming this will allow your child to receive dojo points and reward time! Each week, your child will have some spellings to practice at home. We will complete a spelling test on a Friday. Dojos will be awarded for those that get 8 or more or improve on their previous score. In addition to these, we are having a push towards learning times tables this year. Each week, the children will be practicing a particular times table in class. Continuing this learning at home will benefit your child’s learning.

Have fun, Owls!
