For Unit 4 our writing will continue to look at 'The Bluest of Blues' by Fiona Robinson This is a beautiful account of how the first photographs came to exist. It takes us through the life of Anna Atkins and explores her hobbies and interests. In Unit 3, we looked at the life of Anna Atkins and wrote autobiographies as well as biographies. Over the next few weeks, we will be looking at non chronological reports based on ladybirds. Later on, we will be choosing our own subjects to write our reports on. In maths we will be looking at fractions and how to order them in size. After fractions, we move onto looking at mass and capacity and units associated with these.
Please ensure you complete the weekly Maths Home learning as it embeds our learning studied so far.In Science, we will continue to look at the properties of light and especially shadows. We are hoping for some sunny spring days where we can go outside and measure them.
Meanwhile, our Geography topic for this term looks at comparing the UK with the Mojave desert in the USA. What is similar and what differences between these two habitats
In DT we will be looking at properties of food and what being lactose intolerant can mean. We are hoping to bake at some point soon.
Spellings will be tested on a Monday. Current spellings can be found below. Maths home learning is likewise set on Wednesday and due back by the following Monday and pupils are also encouraged to use Times Tables Rock Stars at home to become more confident with multiplication and division facts.
In addition, we strongly encourage the children to read at least three times a week at home.
In PE in Unit 4, will will be looking at ball team work and the fundamentals of fitness. Please make sure you have your PE kits in school for our sporting activities on Monday and Tuesday. For outdoor PE you may wish your child to have a plain navy tracksuit for the day. Please send your child to school in their kit on their PE day, see the School Uniform webpage for more information. Please make sure all earrings are removed or covered with tape before school on PE days.
