Autumn Term 2

Our topic for this half term is Weather and Seasons. We will be learning about the surprises each season brings and how the world outside changes throughout the year. This will be our main focus in Geography. Our English units will be linked to our Geography. Our fiction book is called 'The Oak Tree' and focuses on how the seasons and years change the setting of the Oak Tree. We will also read 'Wild Weather' as our Non Fiction text and use it to create our very own weather report. We will be doing our DT lessons outside in the forest school, learning how to build things that have wheels and axles. In Science we will be continuing to learn all about different materials and their properties. In PSHE we will be learning about 'Valuing Difference', in Computing our focus is 'IT all around us', in RE we will be looking at the Nativity story and practicing performance through our Nativity songs in Music, we have a throwing unit for PE.
