Outline of the learning for week beginning 10^th January.

Welcome to our first full week of term 3. This week is a busy week, we will be assessing where the children are in English, Maths and Reading to help us plan the learning for the rest of the term.

We will also be starting a new Maths topic on Multiplication and Division. We will start by looking at how to recognise and make equal groups. This will involve looking at all the different ways we can represent a multiplication, for example an array, repeated addition and multiplication calculations. For the classes money topic they will move onto finding given amounts by solving problems involving pounds and pence.

For our English learning over the next few weeks we are going to focus on Non- chronological reports, finishing with producing our own. This week we will look at the features that should be present and make a success criteria for what we think we should include in our own reports. We will also start investigation David Attenborough as our Briton of significance. To continue the poetry topic Mrs Tompsett will move on to looking at rhyming words.

Our topic work this term will have a geography focus. We will be looking at The United Kingdom. This week we will focus on major cities/ seas and rivers.

Science will be discussing variables and how to make a fair test before moving on to look at making a hypothesis.
