​

Welcome back to Term 2! We hope all of the children have had a wonderful break.

This term we are going to be exploring the question ‘Whose rights are important?' as part of our whole school concept question 'Why do rights exist?'.

​

Black History Month

As it is Black History Month, we are going to be starting the term learning all about influential leaders or people. We will be focusing on learning about Martin Luther King Jrn and Marcus Rashford and looking at the impact they both made Historical and more recently, as well as looking at what challenges they may have had to overcome to support civil rights for the Black community

English

In English, we will be looking at both Poetry and Diary writing. The poem will be ‘I will rise’ which is a very moving and thought-provoking poem, which links well to our overarching question relating to Rights. 

    

Maths

For Maths this term, we are going to continue to focus on addition and subtraction, area, Multiplication and division and then towards the end of the term, Length and Perimeter. Please do keep up the Times tables practise at home, at least 3 times a week if possible.

 

 

 

Science

 

Our Science this term is Sound , we will be learning that sound  gets fainter as the distance from the sound source increases,  identify how sounds are made,  associating some of them with something vibrating and find  patterns between  the volume of a  sound and the  strength of the  vibrations that produce it.  We will also have a visit from the School of Noise to introduce our topic.  

 

​The big question

Our Topic this term is Romans, where we look at the History of the Romans and the rights of both the Roman Soldiers and Slaves. We will be looking at maps- identifying the Roman Empire, how the Roman Empire affected Britain and we will look at who the Celts and Romans were. Our whole School concept is RIGHTS.
