Dear Parents and Carers,
Welcome back! I hope you had a wonderful holiday. We are looking forward to seeing everyone and to embarking on our new topic.
During this coming half term, our Geography project will be based on The Mediterranean. We will investigate how the climate and physical geography of this region has shaped the history and development of human settlement and civilization, and we will find out about many cultural aspects associated with Mediterranean countries.
Our focus in English will be on Shakespeare and play scripts through the study of A Midsummer Night’s Dream; we will also be looking at different types of persuasive writing. In maths we will consolidate our work on place value and Roman numerals before moving on to further learning about shapes and angles. We will also continue our ongoing work on number facts, reasoning and problem solving and learning times tables. Please see our project map for more detail about this term’s curriculum in all subject areas.
