Spring 2 Info

Welcome to Trilby Class! Our class teacher is Mr Murch and our teaching assistant is Mrs Smith. We are looking forward to welcoming you in the new year for some more exciting and memorable learning experiences. 

Welcome to Fedora Class! Our class teacher is Miss K Preston and our teaching assistant is Mrs J Hilton. We are very excited to have another half-term filled with exciting and memorable learning experiences. Please refer to this website page which will include information on PE and forest school days, homework, spellings. 

English

This half-term the children will be reading Polar the Titanic Bear where we will focus on furthering our narrative writing skills by writing our own adventure story and also developing our non-fiction writing skills by doing a non-chronological report. The children will have opportunities to learn many of the key language skills needed in order to progress as writers such as organising themes into paragraphs and using prepositions and adverbs to enhance writing.  

Maths

This half-term we will be looking at fractions. We will be looking at unit and non-unit fractions and understanding fractions as part of a whole. We will soon move on to adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominator. 

Science

The children will be learning about plants this half-term which they will explore through scientific enquiry and investigation. They will plan and conduct fair tests and identify what to keep the same and what to change and measure.
