TERM 5 and TERM 6

In Term 5, we will be exploring the topic 'What is Growing?' For this we will be using our developing observational skills to explore what is growing around the school such as plants and creatures. We will also be looking at ourselves to see about how we are growing and how we can keep ourselves healthy as we get older. I am sure the children will share their own special interests and ideas to help us develop this in other ways - another sign of their growing knowledge and confidence in their own learning.

Term 6 will be exploring our topic 'Where will we go?' This will provide opportunities to reflect on where we have been in the past and where we might go next, including thinking about our transition as we start to think about moving on into Jellyfish Class. This will help us to continue with our understanding of how we are growing from Term 5. 

Our Maths over both terms will be to further develop our recall and understanding of number and the number systems including the recall of number bonds to 10, as well as furthering our mathematical vocabulary around doubling, more than/less than and spotting patterns.

In RE we will be exploring stories of different world faiths and how different religions have these stories recorded. We will also be finding out about the meaning behind these stories and how people can use this meaning to help us to make good choices and support each other and the world around us.
