Maple Class
Welcome to the Autumn Term in Maple Class. We are a Year 3 and 4 class. Miss Mirza is the class teacher.
Our Learning:
Our topic this half-term is called 'What did the Romans do for us? Within this topic we are going to learn about the Roman civilisation and how they influenced Britain today. We will be learning about Boudicca and how she tried to stop the Romans.
In computing we will be learning how to make music and simulations using Purple Mash.
Our RE theme is 'What does it mean to live in a multicultural society?'
In Art we will be learning about the artist Hokusai and will be developing our painting skills.
Useful information:
PE is on a Wednesday and Friday afternoon for both Year 3 and 4 this term so please send your child in their PE kit on these days. Please ensure that PE kits meet the criteria of plain t-shirt/their team colour and black/navy/grey bottoms (shorts, leggings or joggers). Please make sure your child has a named water bottle that they bring to school with them every day.
How you can help
Please ensure that your child reads four times a week. On a Friday, reading records will be collected in to check if this has been done since the previous week.
Also, please ensure that your child accesses TTRS (Times Tables Rock Stars) and Spelling Shed throughout the week. This is especially important for Year 4 children as they have their multiplication check in June.
A topic menu (creative homework) involving six challenges will be issued once every half term, where children can choose their own activities. Certificates will be given out depending on the number of challenges completed.
