This term, our topic is Geography [human and physical] and our main question is: What are the significant rivers of the world and why are they important? So our topic learning will be all about rivers.
Meanwhile, in Writing, we will be focusing on poetry and some of our reading will link with this too, as well as exploring non-chronological reports. In maths, we will start the term by looking at geometry. PE will be on Mondays and Thursdays.
Happy Spring time!

Lockdown Learning Spring 4 2021
Our excellent learning from this week, including World Book Day!
This term, our topic is called ‘Take One Picture’, we will be focusing on the question: What is the power of art? We will be learning all about Henri Matisse and his art. It will also link with our writing, in which we will be learning how to write a biography and our reading will also be exploring how biographies are written.
Maths learning will be tailored to the class’ needs, based on the Pixl tests. And our topic learning in the afternoons will be very arty – painting, sculpting and printing!
PE will be on Mondays and Wednesdays, so please come dressed for PE on those days.
Please remember to read at home and practice times tables.
For our topic learning we will be focusing on the following ten questions:
What is the artist most famous for?
How did the artist create their work?
What was the artist’s inspiration?
What qualities of materials enhance my ideas?
How do I combine visual and tactile qualities in sculpture?
How can I use print to create a range of visual elements?
How can I create original pieces that show a range of influences and styles?
How can I draw upon ideas from other artists to develop a personal style of painting?
How can I enhance art, editing with digital media?
