Our first Spring Term text is 'The Red Prince' by Charlie Roscoe. We are writing to entertain and have been considering first person perspectives and the use of 'show not tell' in our writing. Our grammar focus has been using adverbs to express time. Our writing outcome is writing the escape scene from the text from the perspective of The Red Prince, which will lead nicely into our diary entry writing.
In Geography, we have started our Rocks, Relics and Rumbles project by looking closely at layers of the earth.
In Science, we have been learning about forces and contact points. We have looked particularly at push and pull forces and what contacts enable to force to occur.
In Art and Design, we have started our Ammonite project by exploring ammonites and focusing on Fibonacci patterns. We have applied our learning by creating our own ammonite sketches.
