Autumn
Maths
We are learning about adding and subtracting numbers up to 1000. We used dienes (or base 10) to help us.
Science
In science, we are learning about forces. We did an experiment to get a paper clip out of a cup of water without getting our hands wet. We used a magnet, pencil and string to find different solutions to the problem.
Geography
In Geography we are learning about latitude and longitude. We used Digimaps for Schools, an online mapping program to help us.
We have also been using atlases to help us locate cities using latitude and longitude.
RE
We are learning about how family life and festivals show what matters to Jewish people.
History
We are learning about the Stone Age. It is part of pre-history which means it happened before people wrote things down.
Art
We are learning about early drawings from the Stone Age.
