Term 3 - The Iron Age

This term we are going to be learning all about the Celtic way of life in our topic, The Iron Age. Our lessons will be based around a story where we are a breakaway Celtic tribe and need to create a new settlement to survive and thrive in. We will learn how the Celts used what they had in their environment to live well. Our Literacy writing will come from our topic.

In Maths we will be focusing on Multiplication and Division. The children should be using times table rock stars as much as they can at home to support with this!

Term 2 - Space

This term our topic is SPACE! The children are going to be working from a variety of space stories including 'A Way Home' and 'Little Wolf'. 

In Maths we are going to be continuing with Addition and Subtraction. The children need to make sure they are using TT Rockstars at home ready for us to start our Multiplication and Division unit. 

We have lots of exciting things happening this term including the cinema trip, theatre trip and activities leading up to Christmas!
