This half term we are learning...

‘What is Europe famous for?'

The children are going to be learning about the countries and capital cities of the UK, which countries are in Europe and what the similarities and differences are about London and another capital city in Europe. This among other learning opportunities will be our focus topic of the term as we investigate what Europe is famous for.

Key vocabulary:

Continent, Country, Capital city, Atlas, Physical and Human features, Ancient Greece, Primary source, Secondary source, Atlas, Key.

Art:

This term we will be applying our knowledge of drawing. We will be generating ideas from a range of stimuli, using research and evaluation of techniques to develop ideas and planning more purposefully for an outcome. We will look at drawing 3D and how to add texture, shading, shadows and tone.

Science:

In Science, our topic this term will be Digestion and Food. We will be learning about the human digestive system before moving on to animals. We will revisit our prior learning of herbivores, carnivores and omnivores before moving on to different types of teeth and their uses.
