Curriculum Overview
monthly Highlights
This month, in Maths, we’ve been practising our short multiplication skills and becoming much more confident with tricky calculations. In Science, we explored electricity, investigating circuits and discovering how switches and components work. For our Topic, we’ve dived into the world of the Romans, finding out what life was like and how they changed Britain. A brilliant month of curiosity and hard work!
Spring Term Gallery
We’ve got an exciting Spring term ahead! In Maths, we’ll be learning all about units and measurement, exploring length, mass and capacity in real‑life contexts. In Geography, we’ll dive into map reading, using symbols, keys and grid references to help us understand places around the world. We’ll also continue developing our writing skills through engaging texts linked to our learning. A brilliant term of discovery awaits!
Autumn term gallery
We had a fantastic Autumn term! We explored Black History and then moved on to our Rivers topic, learning how they form and why they matter. In Science, we investigated States of Matter through hands‑on experiments. We also enjoyed reading lots of dragon-themed stories, which inspired some brilliant creative writing. As part of our climate curriculum, we designed and made tote bags and posters to share messages about protecting our planet.
