New reading books and phonics homework will be sent out on a Friday.

Find below the curriculum overview for the term.

Knowledge Overview:

English

This term we will be reading stories based around 'Little Red Riding Hood'. We will begin by reading the traditional version and then read alternative versions throughout the term. We will practise writing sentences, using capital letters and full stops and conjunctions to join ideas.

Maths

We will begin the term by deepening our understanding of place value to 50 using concrete apparatus, pictorial representations and then more abstract concepts. We will then explore length and heigh and mass and volume, using lots of practical resources.

Geography

We will be learning to compare Egypt to England this term. We will identify and compare the human and physical features, using photographs and maps to help us. We will taste Egyptian food, listen to Egyptian music and compare the culture.
