Spring Term

In Maths this term, we will begin by continuing to learn about multiplication and division, having previously completed units on place value, addition and subtraction. Pupils are also practising their x2, x3, x4, x8 and x10 times tables in class, in the hope they build up their knowledge of the times-tables and eventually know them by-heart.

 

In English, we will begin the spring term by writing about the classic pantomime Dick Whittington.  

In guided reading sessions, we will read the fictional book The Hodgeheg and in science, we will study the topic Food and our bodies – which includes an exciting trip to Barleylands Farm!

 

In PSHE, we will continue learning from the dotcom programme and in Modern Foreign Languages (MFL), we will continue learning about basic French greetings, saying hello and goodbye in French (bonjour / au revoir) and also asking how people are.
