This is an exciting and engaging enquiry question set to explore what the children can see around them. Our mini enquiry questions: What can I see outside my window? What grows near me? Where am I? What is the weather? What is a living thing? What am I? Are all animals the same? Each lesson will comprise of different activities for the children to take part in, to build their vocabulary and understanding on the world around them, starting with what they can see 'outside their window'.

English Writing In English, we will be working on building stamina in writing, focusing on letter formation and using phonics to support spelling. We will be using the text Stuck by Oliver Jeffers. R.E In R.E we will be discussing 'Who made the world?' The children will be exploring how the world was created using the Bible story from Genesis. Science Our science topic for these next two terms will be plants and their structures and animals, including humans. We will be investigating different plants and using our observational skills. We will also be observing how the seasons and weather changes throughout the year, using the large tree on the playground, to observe its leaves and how it changes as the seasons change.

Computing In computing, we will be looking at systems and networks, learning how to log onto the computer and to use the mouse to draw. We will also be looking at where else we can find technology, beyond the school. PSHE This term’s unit is ‘Being me in my world’. First we will be looking at what makes us feel safe, both in school and the wider community. We will build on this to how we can take responsibility for our actions and what consequences mean. We will focus on what makes us proud and how we can have a positive impact in our school and community.
