Autumn Term

This term we will be learning the following:

English: The works of Michael Foreman, poetry and stories from other cultures. We will be using our ICT skills and lots of exciting apps to bring our work to life e.g. using do ink greenscreen to create interactive postcards. 

Maths: We follow the national curriculum and pupils can be supported at home by concentrating on learning times tables. Pupils should be confident in 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 times tables and the inverse operation (division facts) by the time they are in Y4. Lots to do!
