Welcome to Summer Term 2024

Our final term is packed full of engaging topics and exciting adventures!

In our English lessons, we will begin by exploring 'Jack and the Baked Beanstalk' by Colin Stimpson. In this twisted retelling of the narrative Jack and the Beanstalk, Jack and his mother run a diner that is put out of business when the road they are on shuts down. Jack's mother sends him out to buy coffee beans and milk with their last few pennies, but instead he trades the pennies for a can of magic baked beans which leads him on an epic adventure.

Our weekly spelling and phonics tests will take place each Friday. New spellings will also be given on Fridays. Homework will also continue to be assigned on Fridays and collected the same day the following week.

Reading and Phonics underpins all education and as such pupils are encouraged to read at home and practise their phonics sounds for at least five minutes every day. A record of this should then be made by a parent/carer in the Home School Journal. Please can you ensure your child’s journal is bought to school each day.

Power Maths is now fully integrated into our curriculum, helping children to develop fluency and deep conceptual understanding. Our weekly arithmetic tests will continue every Friday, and their progress will be recorded in their Home School Journals.

In our Wider Curriculum subjects, we will explore who are Muslims and where do they live. In History we are delving into Travel and Transport, where we will uncover key milestones in our transport history and significant individuals such as Amelia Earhart and the Wright Brothers. In Science, we are moving onto a topic of interest to us all, ‘Growing Up’, where we will continue to learn how humans develop and change from babies to adulthood. In Art and Design, children develop their understanding of key Art and Design skills; learning to print, mix colours and experimenting with media.

In computing, we will begin to explore Digital Music, whilst our weekly music lessons will delve deeper into our knowledge of Musical Structures.

We are also incredibly lucky to have Mr Crompton teach Hawk class Forest school for the first few Wednesdays of our Summer Term! This will replace our Tuesday PE session. Please bring in approriate clothing for Forest School on Wednesdays and come to school in PE kits on Thursdays (when Forest School has finished, PE will continue on Tuesdays and Thursdays).
