Spring 1

English - the book we are basing our learning on is Escape to Pompeii. We are building up to two pieces of writing: a setting description before the volcano eruption and a setting description after.

Reading - we will be focusing on the book, Earth Shattering Events. We will be using the text to retrieve information and key facts that link to our geography learning. 

Maths - continuing with the multiplication and division unit of learning we will be moving on to multiples of 10. After this, we will learn the formal method for multiplication of 2-digit number by 1-digit number.  

Science - our learning will link to the theme for British Science Week: Curiosity, what's your question?

Geography - our learning this half term is 'Extreme Earth'. In this we will learn about volcanoes, mountains and earthquakes. We will specifically focus on Italy and study the topographical map for the country.
