Welcome to Spring 2! I hope you all had a lovely break.

See below for an insight into our learning this half-term.

Curriculum

In English, we will develop our writing skills through our class book 'Big Blue Whale' by Nicola Davies. Our writing outcome will be to write a persuasive informative article about whales for the protection of the blue whale, applying Gateway and Mastery keys taught throughout the unit. 

In Maths, our focus will be Multiplication and Division. We will be practising multiplying and dividing larger numbers, using methods like long division. We will explore factors and the relationship between multiplication and division. 

In Geography, we will be working to answer the question - How have the Romans influenced the Geography of the UK?

In History, we will be working to answer the question - What did the Romans do for Britain?

In Science, we will be exploring Electricity. We will identify common appliances that run on electricity, be constructing  a simple series electrical circuit and identifying its basic parts.

In RE, our topic is 'Desert to Garden' - we will be deepening our understanding of the Eucharist by exploring the Last Supper and how this links to our previous learning about the Eucharist. We will also be exploring how Holy Week is celebrated in different cultures.
