Welcome to Class Four’s page for 2024-2025

Hello and welcome to Class Four’s page, here is our class scripture quote-

Matthew 5:16 (NASB95) - Matthew 5:16 NASB95 - “Let your light shine… | BibliaAutumn 2

Our topic this half term is The Anglo Saxons   The Knowledge organiser for the topic is here- Angry-Anglo-Saxons.pdf

Our English learning this half term starts with the topic of Legends. We will read a range of Legend stories and try to identify common features. We will begin by studying the story of Gelert and trying to retell it by heart. We will then move on to reading a retelling of Beowulf by Michael Morpurgo. Our topic will end with children writing their own innovated version of a legend. Each English lesson begins with a SPAG starter and we will study complex sentences with ed openers, mixing action/dialogue/description and determiners.

In Mathematics, we will begin by learning about multiples, factors, square numbers, prime numbers and multiplying/dividing by 10,100 and 1000. We will then move on to a large unit of work all about fractions.

Our RE topic is The Ten Commandments. We will learn about how the Ten Commandments were given to Moses and then discuss whether they are still relevant to modern life.  In History we will learn about the Anglo Saxons with our key concept being Migration. We will use historical artifacts to make plausible assumptions about how they lived and try to answer our two key questions- Why did the Anglo Saxons come to Britain?  What can we learn from the Anglo Saxons from the discoveries at Sutton Hoo? We will also link our Art learning to our History topic by learning about Anglo Saxon weaving and then completing some weaving patterns of our own.

In Science our topic is light and the overview of the light topic can be found here- Science-key-knowledge-and-skills-progresssion-Class-4-Year-B.pdf (Please note, this topic has been swapped from Spring 1 to Autumn 2) In Computing we will learn about staying safe online and in PE invasion games starting with tag rugby.
