Autumn Term 2024
Welcome back!
After a lovely summer holidays, Owl class are back working super hard on their new topic all about Ernest Shackleton and Antarctica. We will be learning about his perilous mission to Antarctica, the geography and landscape of Antarctica and some of the research that happens there today aboard the Halley VI Research Station.
In maths we will be following the White Rose Maths topics as laid out in the curriculum section of our class page; starting with Place Value. There is a great parents section with downloadable workbooks should you wish to continue your child's maths learning at home.
We are currently writing our own versions of a poem called 'The Dreadful Menace' which links brilliantly to our Antarctica topic. This was originally used in an advert for the 2014 Winter Olympics and the children have been working hard on similes, alliteration and symbolism in preparation for writing their own poetry.
Swimming will continue on Wednesdays and PE will remain on Thursday afternoons until Christmas. Spellings will be on Mondays for the entire year.
