In Maths we will be finding 10 more and 10 less of a number to 100 and we will be learning how to add and subtract two 2-digit numbers. You can read the knowledge organiser here.

 

In our literacy lessons next week we will be reading the book 'We are Water Protectors'. At the start of the week we will be writing a list poem about water, rivers and waves. We will then write a fact file about water pollution and teach the reader how to protect rivers. You can read the knowledge organiser here.

 

In computer science next week we will be identifying the correct keys on a keyboard. You can read the knowledge organiser here.

 

In geography next week we will be naming and locating the seven continents. You can read the knowledge organiser here.

 

In our design and technology lessons we are going to be brilliant chefs and discuss the skills we would need to design and make an appealing menu e.g. chopping, grating, peeling and presentation. Using our prior knowledge from our science lessons, we will sort different ingredients into food groups. You can read the knowledge organiser here.

We will be introducing spelling checks this week. Children will receive either a Set A or Set B spelling list. Set A is a list of spellings for children who are currently doing Read, Write Inc and Set B is for children who do Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling lessons. These lists will be slipped into the red spelling books and sent home every Friday. The children will be tested on the words the following week, on a Friday morning.  Please do not write in the red books at home.
