The Wider Curriculum
Science:
This half term we will be starting our learning on animals by looking at the human body and learning all about it. We will be learning the names of all the body parts and understanding what our body needs to be healthy. We will be considering how we can make changes in our lives to ensure we are safe and well.
RE:
We will be investigating Christianity in RE this half term. We will investigate where Christians go to worship and understand why the cross is important to Christians. We will focus on the Easter period and learn how this is celebrated and what it means to Christians.
PE:
This half term we will be working on our gymnastic skills in PE to learn to balance and make shapes with our bodies. In addition, we will be using our team building skills and working together in a range of different team sports.
History:
In History we will be learning about Queen Elizabeth II and investigating what she achieved throughout her reign. We will consider how she showed respect and belonging during the time that she was Queen and what she achieved.
English
Phonics:
In Phonics we will continue to learn our Phase 5 Phonics in preparation for the Phics Screening Check.
English & Reading:
In our writing we will be writing a WANTED! poster for a wild beast that we have created. Our key skill will be adding the suffix 's' to words to make plurals. To inspire us we will be reading the book Where the Wild Things are by Maurice Sendak and using the illustrations to create our own wild creatures.
Maths
Maths -
We will be revisiting place value in Maths and looking at our teen numbers to 20. We will be working on recognising and counting these numbers. We'll work on recognising a full ten and counting on rather than counting from zero when we are counting and representing numbers to 20. We will be using visuals to support our understanding.
