English
We will begin our English this term by reading our new class book (Pugs of the frozen north). We will then immerse ourselves in the story by acting out scenes and hot seating certain characters. We will then use this to write our own persuasive letters!.
Maths
In Maths this term, we will be covering fractions and mass and capacity. This will consist of the children learning up how order, compare add and subtract fractions, then moving to using tenths and hundreds (year 3's describing mass and capacity).
History/Geography
Our Geography topic this half term is a frozen world! We will be comparing the Arctic and Antarctic regions, discussing their climates and exploring the effects of climate change on both regions.
Science
Our next science topic this term is plants. We will be exploring the functions of plants, how they grow and their lifecycles. Alongside this we will also be investigating the way in which water is transported through them.
