Our Year Group Symbol: St Peter's keys to Heaven
In the Gospel of Matthew 16:19, Jesus says to Peter, "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on Earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on Earth shall be loosed in heaven.
This term we started reading UG: Boy genius of the Stone Age which relates to our Autumn Term topic.We have also learn some Stone Age poems which we have performed and will be writing our own poems in the same style. The next text we will be looking at is Anglo-Saxon Boy by Tony Bradman.
In Maths we follow the White Rose curriculum and will be looking at Place Value and Calculation, focusing on the four operations. Before and after each Maths topic, we do a mini assessment to see the progress the children have made.
Our first Science topic this term is Living Things and Their Habitats. The children will categorise living organisms and identify their different habitats. Before starting any programming in Computing, we will spend some time talking about how to be safe online.
The children are focusing on the story of Noah's ark this term, understanding what it means when promises are made, linking this to friendships and even the meaning of marriage. Following this, we will explore the story of Abraham.
In music, we are using the Charanga scheme, which encourages the understanding of the different aspects of a piece of music, such as rhythm, instrumentation and singing. Due to CoVid 19 restrictions, we are unable to sing in school, so, where possible, we are taking our lessons outdoors, and exploring clapping games, sounds in nature, making instruments from natural materials, and singing in rounds - exploring the harmony created by separate groups starting the same song at different times.
