We have began our English and Maths learning as well as establishing our rights and responsibilities and learning more about Blackfriars Bridge.[/dropshadowbox]
This week we learn:
- In Maths we will be starting a unit on place value, understanding the value of each digit in a 3 digit number, using numbers up to 1000, and exploring 100 using a variety of representations.
- In English we will introduce a new book following our topic on the stone age – ‘The Stone Age Boy’ and do our work based around the book.
- In Science our topic this term is Forces and Magnets. This week we will learn about different forces, and what force is acting on an object.
- In RE we will introduce Hinduism, and this week we will identify and consolidate what we already know about this religion.
