Autumn Term 2020

Hello! We hope that you have all enjoyed your summer. We are so excited to get this new term underway and have lots of fun activities planned for you all.

Our first topic is all about nutrition and movement. We will be finding out where our food comes from in Geography. In Science, we will be learning about healthy eating, our bodies and teeth. We will spend time sketching fruit and vegetables as part of our art work.

Maths

Our first maths topic will be Place Value. We will be learning the value of each digit of a 2/3/4 digit number, ordering numbers and adding/ subtracting. Keep on practising those number bonds to 10/20/100!
