AUTUMN 1

 

 

This half term our Topic is 'Only we can save the World'.

 

In class, we have been using the book '10 Things I can do to save the World' to discuss a range of ideas on how we can help Earth.  

The children have been sad to see the damage that is occurring to our planet and learnt about things such as recycling, deforestation and plastic pollution.  They have designed some amazing posters to advise other people of ways we could help our environment and even completed an assembly to share their ideas with the school community.     

Our 2nd text of 'The Three Billy Goats Gruff' has allowed the children to look at the world in a different way and understand why the goats may have wanted to cross the bridge as the grass 'really' was greener.  The children have been introduced to adjectives to describe the settings and characters in the story and will complete their own rewrite of the events which occur.  

 

This half term we will be looking at a non fiction book called the  'First Big Book of Things that Go'.

 

We will be looking at how a non fiction book differs from a fiction book and how to gather key information from these books. We will be introducing the children to a glossary and an index and everyone will be working towards creating their own fact file on either a car, boat, train or aeroplane, using the information that they have found in the texts.
