In Maths we will continue looking at fractions, decimals and percentages. The children need to keep practising their times tables because this will help when it comes to doing fractions. All the children have their own log in and password for Mathletics, so it would be brilliant if they could be encouraged to go on it at

During our History based topic we will be using a lot of research skills to learn about what life was like in the Ancient Egyptian era. We will be discovering how life differed from the Pharaohs to the slaves. We will be finding out about Mummification, Travel, Food and Diet, and all manner of other things. We will be looking at chronology and seeing where the Ancient Egyptians sit on our history timeline.

We have PE every Monday so please ensure that your child has a full PE kit with trainers. In PE this term, we are developing our striking and fielding skills.  On Tuesdays, we have a boogie bounce session and they will need their PE kits as well.

We will be continuing our music lessons with Mr Flase on a Wednesday, where we will begin to write our own rhythms and music scores.

In Art, our focus will be on all sorts of Egyptian themed art. We will be making sarcoughaguss, cartouches, and making our own papyrus paper. We will be learning how to write in heiroglphics. We are even going to make some canopic jars to keep our organs in ship shape ready for the afterlife.
