Hello everybody and welcome to our class page. In our team, we have 3 adults - Miss Marriott, Miss Brown and Miss Holloway. We have a fantastic class full of wonderful children who brighten our up our days! Take a look below at our current learning and some great pictures too!

TOPIC

This term our topic is learning all about different countries around the world and what makes them special and unique.

We will be learning all about their geography, languages, location and capital cities.

We will be starting by looking at the UK and then moving further afield.

ENGLISH

In English, we are spending this term looking at the wonderful book Hodgeheg by Dick King-Smith.

This is a wonderful book all about a little hedgehog called Max who wants to learn how to cross the road safely. After all, if humans can do it, why can't hedgehogs?

Will he learn to cross safely? Who will help him? What will he find on the other side of the road?

MATHS

We follow a 5 day programme:

Day 1 - place value, addition and subtraction

Day 2 - geometry and data handling
