Autumn
Our topic for the Autumn term is Toy Story
In English we will be looking at the story of the Colour Monster and exploring the range of emotions in this text through DEAL. Following on from this topic, we will use the film Toy Story as a stimulus for our writing.
In Maths we will be looking at one to one correspondence and place value of numbers up to 10 and 20. We will also be looking at addition and subtraction within 10, using a range of resources and methods to support us.
As Geographers we will be exploring the Geography of our school and answering the question 'Where in the UK is Oak Tree Primary School?'
As Historians we will be learning about toys from the past and comparing them to toys we play with now. We will be using a range of primary and secondary resources to help us sequence the history of toys on a timeline dating 1900 to our present day.
As Scientists we will begin to explore seasonal changes (which will continue over the course of the year). In autumn 1, we will also be learning about the basic parts of the human body and identifying which part of the body is associated with each sense.
As Computer specialists (in Computing) we will be learning how to use our usernames and passwords to help us log on to our individual chrome books.
As Artists we will be creating artwork using primary and secondary colours.
In RE we will be learning about Christianity and answering the question, 'Who is a Christian and what do they believe?'
