What children are learning in SL1

English

For the next few weeks, we will be reading poetry. The children will be learning about rhyme, rhythm and other features of poetry. They will attempt to write their own poems. You can help them at home by encouraging them to read some poems and find rhyming and repetitive word.

 (I will send a selection of poems for children to read at home)

In maths the children will

• Look at number patterns and learn time tables (2, 3, 5 10)

• Find 10 more 10 less than numbers to 100

• Tell the time: o’clock, half past, quarter past and quarter to.

Science: We will learn about plants e.g.

• Why plants have leaves, roots, stems and flowers.

• How do plants change during the year

We will be visiting the Brighouse in Atherstone (with Year 3) to support children's learning by exploring the countryside and looking closely at the plants in the environment.

History (1950-2000)

We will learn about key events during this period and learn about how fashion, dance and music have changed over the different decades. We will visit Liverpool   in December with Year 3 to learn about The Beatles.
