Curriculum Coverage

In Maths, we will be measuring length and height in centimetres and metres, comparing and ordering lengths and heights, and solving word problems about lengths and heights using all four operations. We will then be moving onto our unit on mass, capacity and temperature. We will learn how to measure in grams and kilograms, how to compare volume and capacity, and how to measure in millilitres and litres. We will also measure temperature using a thermometer.

 

In English, we will be using what we have learnt about owls whilst reading ‘The Owl who was Afraid of the Dark’ by Jill Tomlinson, to write an informative, non-chronological report.

Our next text is ‘Major Glad, Major Dizzy’ by Jan Oke, which takes the form of a historical recount, told from the point of view of some Victorian toys. We will be learning the skills that we need to be able to write our own recount of historical events.

 

In Science, we will be finding out about electricity, including how to use electrical items safely. We will also learn why Thomas Edison was a significant individual. In our Science investigation work, will be making a light bulb glow by completing an electrical circuit.  

 

In PHSE we will be learning strategies for getting on with others. We will also discuss the rules and principles for keeping safe online, how to recognise risks, harmful content and contact, and how to report it.
