This half term our learning is based around the question 'Where does the water from the River Are come from?'.
English - The Rhythm of the Rain
Our text this half term is 'The Rhythm of the Rain' by Grahame Baker Smith. Throughout this unit, we will be completing activities by applying our inference and vocabulary skills linked to the text. By the end of the unit, we will use all of our 'tools' from the toolkit phase to create a setting description and a poem linked to the book. Come back in a couple of weeks time to see our pieces of writing!
Maths - Place Value, Addition and Subtraction and Multiplication and Division
Science - States of Matter
In Science, our unit is 'States of matter'. Over the upcoming weeks, we will be learning about the difference between solids, liquids and gases, classifying objects, and identifying their properties. We will also learn about condensation and evaporation by conducting a variety of investigations.
Topic - Where does the water from the River Are come from?
Over the next few weeks, we will be learning about:
- the differences between the canal and the river
- what causes water pollution and how we can tackle the problem
- whether, as a year group, we would be flood ready through an investigation.
