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

Term 5 2026

Topic

Our topic this term is:

What Makes an Amazing Author?

Owls will be travelling all over the world in this topic, finding out more about the places that inspired their favourite stories! We will also be learning about authors, both well-known and less so, what they have in common and what makes them unique. We even have a best-selling author coming in to do a mood-boarding session with us! How exciting!

Ask your child about their learning and see if they can tell you some interesting facts – they already know some fantastic ones about Roald Dahl!

Maths

This term, our mathematical focusses are fractions, time and money. Working out the time and dealing with money (counting coins or notes in shops etc.) would really support their learning if you get the opportunity.

Science

Our Big Idea in Science this term is ‘:  Energy makes things happen and can be seen by its effects; it can be transferred (but is not used up)’.

PE

PE will remain on a Wednesday morning (Mr Hayes will be teaching us athletics) and we are lucky enough to be having a coach teaching us cricket on Thursday morning, too! PE kit (plimsolls/trainers, shorts/tracksuit bottoms, t-shirt and jumper) should be ready to wear in school on these days. Please note, children with earrings need to remove them prior to PE due to health and safety.

I will be handing out this term’s homework grid on Friday 24th April. This grid will consist of tasks and activities that are linked to the topics that we are learning this term.

Each topic will be worth house points and it is up to you and your child how many you complete over the coming weeks. Homework books will be sent out and tasks can be handed in as and when they are completed. Please ask or email me if you have any questions.
