Art During the Summer term, the children have been focusing on producing collage art of an Arctic scene. They primarily focussed upon the colours that could possibly be seen in the Arctic, other than the startling white of the snow; engaging in the lustre of the sky and the amazing colours on show. They then had to use water colours to produce their sky before adding materials to identify as the snow. The children then added paper plates to their snowscapes, to impersonate an igloo to complete their scenes. The children's artwork looked amazing!!

Writing
During the second half of the Summer term, the children have made a wonderful start in their non-chronological writing about their chosen location (Mojave desert, Arctic and Amazon rainforest), for the topic, I'm a Teacher... Get me out of here! Their main focus is looking at using their knowledge of expanded noun phrases, adding outstanding adjectives to make their sentences phenominal, as well as applying 3rd person structure to their writing. Maths In maths, the children have been applying their knowledge of fractions to further develop their understanding of decimals. The children have been focussing on number lines, including those on everday objects such as weighing scales, measuring jugs and the like. The children have been using manipulatives in the classroom to broaden their understanding further enabling them to use these skills when answering problem solving questions. |
