The heart pumps blood in the blood vessels around to the lungs.

 Oxygen, nutrients and water are carried on the blood to different parts of the body.

Carbon dioxide is removed from the blood when it gets to the heart.

Diet, exercise, drugs and lifestyle have an impact on the way our bodies function.

Our geography unit will be learning about volcanoes and how they are formed. Our VIPs are:

• Volcanoes are formed when magma rises from the centre of the Earth and erupts onto the surface as lava 
• Two types are composite volcanoes and shield volcanoes and they are different 
• Composite volcanoes occur when plates push together and shield volcanoes occur when plates move apart.

• Volcanoes can produce: pyroclastic flows, ash clouds, volcanic bombs and lava.

• Volcanoes mostly occur along the Ring of Fire.

In RE, we will be finishing our unit on Christianity, the moving on to learn about a non-religious world-view: Humanism.

For our design and technology, the children will be learning about pulleys and motors, then applying  this understanding to design then create Fairground Rides. The children will be building circuits, then integrating them onto structures.
