Maths – We will be subtracting fractions from whole amounts, finding fractions of a quantity and then using fractions to calculate quantities.

English – This half term, we shall be continuing our fantastic text (the title will be revealed to children only this week!) We will be editing our continuations of the story, reading the next 2 pages and responding to the next set of illustrations, thinking about our likes, dislikes and any puzzles and patterns. We will be focusing on editing our work this week, spotting errors in punctuation and spelling  and continuing to think about handwriting with neat diagonal and horizontal joins.

Science – We are beginning a unit on teeth and digestion. If any family has connections with a dentist, dental nurse please let us know as we would love to make links to support your child’s learning.

Geography-We will be exploring caring for the environment through the story ‘The Lorax’ by Dr Seuss. We will then be focusing on one particular rainforest plant and looking at the journey from seed to the shops.
