Autumn 1

Stone age to the Iron age

Within history we will learn how our ancestors lived over 10,000 years ago. We will learn how they survived and thrived in our local landscape. The challenges they faced and how over time they developed and began to use metal tools. We will learn how our ancestors’ lives changed from a hunter gathering lifestyle to a more settled farming life and the subsequent growth of communities.

Autumn 2

How wonderful is our world?

In this geography topic we will learn about our amazing world. We will learn about the continents and oceans. We will learn to use geographical terms such as equator, hemispheres, arctic circle and many more. We will learn about time zones and how to look after our planet.

Spring 1

Happy New Year!

We have lots of exciting things planned for this half term with an overarching enquiry question: Where in the world is Italy?   We will learn about the human and physical geographical features which make Italy such an interesting place to visit.  In D&T we will be investigating, designing and making our own pizzas.  And in Science we shall look at different animals’ diets, what constitutes healthy eating for humans and how our human skeleton works.

Here are the pictures we took during our trip to Creswell Crags.

Thanks again for all of your support, and a huge thanks to the parents who came and helped make it possible.
