Welcome to Robin Class
Class Teacher: Miss Hebditch
Teaching Assistant: Mrs Chongbang and Miss Chapman
Welcome to Term 6
Welcome back to our final term of the year!
Our Geography enquiry this term is, 'Why are jungles so wet and deserts so dry?'. The children will continue to develop their map work skills, but this time on a global scale. They will be learning why different areas have different climates and how that climate affects the flora and fauna of that location.
Our reading book this term will be 'The Girl Who stole an Elephant'. In this story, our main character, Chaya, has stolen precious jewels from the queen and has escaped on the back of an elephant! However, this is just the start of the adventure. When her escape takes her to the depths of the jungle, she discovers a revolution is stirring. Will she be able to return to her village a hero, after leaving it as a thief?
Our science this term is 'Animals: Movement and Nutrition’. The children will be learning that animals can be classified as vertebrates, which have a backbone, or invertebrates, which do not. They will also be exploring what nutrients are needed by the body to successfully move, grow and stay warm.
PE will be on a Friday afternoon, where the children will be learning to play rounders. Please could the children have an appropriate PE kit in school.
Robin's Forest School sessions will take place in the first half of the term. They will take place on Wednesday afternoons (starting this week). Please remember your Forest School kit and appropriate footwear. Check the Class Dojo page for any updates on Forest School.
