Literacy

Our focus texts for this term will be the ‘Where the Wild Things Are’ and ‘Farmer Duck’. We will learn about story mountains, instruction writing and also do a bit of role play! Grammar sessions will primarily focus on suffixes –ed, -ing and –est.

  

Maths

The children will learn about fractions: halves and quarters. We will begin by halving objects and images before looking at number values as well.

Later in the term we will be learning about  time. We will explore o’ clock and half past the hour, moving in hour and half hour increments.

Science 

This term we are going to be returning to ‘Materials and their Properties’. We will look in detail at freezing, melting, and evaporating and the changing states.

Here is our overview for this term’s theme – transport overview 

Spelling tests will continue this half term. Paper copies will be sent home on Fridays in preparation for the following week, along with phonics practise.
