In Maths this term (summer), we will begin the term with shape, position and direction, decimals, negative numbers, converting units, volume and consolidation, problem solving and challenges.

In English, our class book will be Journey to the River Sea by Eva Ibbotson. We will be creating our own survival guides and exploring a range of poetry, as well as developing comprehension skills. The children are also benefitting from regular dictation. Spellings will be issued on Fridays as a hard copy. Please could you help your child practise these at home and prepare them for a test on the following Friday. The children will also be issued with homework on a Friday too, to be handed in by the following Friday.

In Science this term, we will be focusing on Evolution & Inheritance and Changes as Humans Develop to Old Age.

In DT, we are designing making mobile phone cases and in RE we will be exploring Sikhism. Our Geography topic will be The Americas, our History topic will be the Tudors and our PSHE topic will be One World. In PE, we are doing outdoor games on Monday afternoons. We will also be preparing the children for Sports Day. We are doing a block of swimming lessons at the Lenton Centre on Tuesday afternoons and we are soon going to be starting tennis lessons later in the term. 

Each week, the children will receive an activity linked to our current learning, reading and spellings. Information can be found on our Oaks Class Dojo page.
