Welcome Badgers!
Welcome to our class page. Here you will find information about what we are doing on certain days and what we are learning about this term.
In Geography, the children will learn about lines of latitude and longitude and revisit the equator and the poles. As they work through the unit they will have opportunities to practice using grid references and will learn how to read and use map scale.
Their Science will focus on the human body. This unit introduces cells as the building blocks that all living things are made of. They will learn that cells inside our bodies make up tissue (e.g. muscle), which make up organs, which function in systems within our bodies. This unit explains digestion in much more detail and the concept of nutrients within foods.
In art, the children will learn about how the artists use light. It starts by connecting the concept of light to the concept of form, exploring how form is shown by how light falls on an object. The children then look at the work of Vermeer, another master of light, considering how he used extremes of light to create a calm realism. They compare this with the drama of the work of Caravaggio.
In Maths, the children will be looking consolidating their understanding of place value and comparing numbers. Through P.H.S.E. we will look at the importance of working together living healthy lifestyles. In R.E. we will discuss about what religion and spirituality mean to us. In Computing we will be focusing on coding and how to writhe algorithms. They will continue with Latin, and will learn language linked around a particular theme and discuss the impact it has had on our lives today.
Our P.E. lessons will be on Tuesday and Wednesday will be focusing on invasion games and gymnastics.
