English
We will be using our new class book (Oh Maya Gods) to plan, draft and publish a non-chronological report on the Mayan civilisation based on the children's research. Following this, we will be composing an information text on the Maya.
Maths
In Maths this term, we continue to cover multiplication and division. Children will learn their 3, 4 and 8 times tables, how to scale and efficiently multiply numbers up to 3 digits long.
History/Geography
Our history topic this half term is the Maya! We will be learning about their civilisations, jobs and Gods with children summarising why they believe the Mayan civilisation ended.
Science
Our next science topic this term is light. Children will be learning about the sun, reflections and shadows with children creating their own shadow puppets for a shadow show!
