Autumn Term Literacy

This term we will continue to revise many aspects of grammar e.g. verbs, adjectives and homophones.  We have already learnt about alliteration and used it to create some poems. We will have lots of opportunities to develop our writing. We will be learning about different types of poetry and will have opportunities to compose some of these different styles. We will be revising the features of Non-Chronological Reports and will write our own reports on the homes of Ancient Egyptians. Amidst all of this, we will be creating some comic strips and writing some newspaper reports. 

 

Autumn Term Numeracy 

This term we are going to be really busy learning lots of new concepts and revising concepts we have already been taught.

We have been learning how to calculate the area and perimeter of shapes. We will be learning about the various lines and searching around school to find examples of each of these. 

We will be looking at compasses and learning the 8 compass points and using these in some directional games and activities.
