Hello Elm Class!
I hope you all enjoyed the summer break and feel ready for an exciting autumn term.
This half term, we will be focusing on the book ‘Gorilla' by Anthony Browne. ' Hannah’s favourite animals in the whole world are gorillas; she reads about them, watches programmes about them, and draws pictures of them. But all she really wants to do is see a gorilla in real life. Hannah’s dad is always too busy to take her to the zoo, so on her birthday, Hannah decides to ask for a gorilla of her own.' We will find out about these wonderful apes and their habitat, and discuss the issues they face including the question of whether they should be kept in zoos.
Have a look at the Curriculum Map 1 to see an overview of the subject planning for Autumn Term 1.
PE this term will be every Tuesday and Wednesday (cricket with specialist coach). PE kit is a white t-shirt and black joggers/shorts. We are trying to run all PE sessions outdoors at the moment, so a sweatshirt/hoodie may be needed.
Maths and spelling homework will be set every Friday. The learning will link to what we have been learning in class with the maths set on Mathletics and spelling on Seesaw.
