This page is dedicated to all the exciting things we will be doing in class this year.
Term 3 2025
Topic - Did the Stone Age Rock?
Owls will be having so much fun this term, learning all about the Stone Age! We will be travelling back to see how they lived, what they ate and investigate Stone Age ruins in the UK. Make sure you ask your child about their learning; they may even be able to tell you how to wash a woolly mammoth!
Maths
This term in maths we are focussing on multiplication and division, length and perimeter, and fractions.
Science
Our science topic this term is “Fossils”! The children are going to get to design and create their own fossils, go fossil hunting and learn about great fossil hunters like Mary Anning.
PE
PE will be on a Wednesday morning and Thursday afternoon, so PE kit (Plimsolls/trainers, shorts/tracksuit bottoms, t-shirt and jumper) will need to be in school ready to use on these days. Please note, children with earrings need to remove them prior to PE due to health and safety. In PE this term we will be doing invasion games and also teamwork-based games. Outdoor learning If you wish to you can also leave a pair of trousers and outdoor footwear here with us for when we use the forest school area.
Reading and spellings
Please try to read with your child every day, either their book from school or a book of your choice from home. Please try to make sure you sign their yellow reading record whenever your child reads! Each week, your child will have some spellings to practice at home. We will complete a spelling test on a Friday.
Homework
I will be handing out this term’s homework grid on Wednesday 7th January. 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 dojo points, and it is up to you and your child how many you complete over the next 6 weeks. If your child does not have a homework book, please let me know and I will provide one. My email is This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
