Our topic this term is …

During the first half term, we will be learning about the impact Bentley Colliery had on our community. We will focus on the increase in population as well as the amenities that came with this. We’ll investigate the Paddy Train crash and the other hardships that mining caused.

Our class novels this half term: A range of books by the author Grahame Baker-Smith. These include Farther, Leon and the place between and Rhythm of the Rain. 

Our behaviour focus: Team Stop

Maths Focus: This term we start by focusing on Place Value and consolidating our knowledge before moving onto Addition, Subtraction and Statistics.

English Focus: In English, we will be focusing on consolidating our learning on Expanded Noun Phrases and Conjunctions through a setting description using  our class text, Farther, as a stimulus. We are also improving our formal language and use of fronted adverbials by writing letters to those that were affected by the Paddy Train Crash.
