Miss Small’s Class.

As a class team, Miss Small, Miss Dickinson, Mrs Drury and Miss Oxby, we are very proud of all the work the pupils have completed last term. The first week allowed us to introduce the theme of Plastic Pollution for the term, we completed research into different countries and why pollution is higher in these.

The project for last term was Plastic Pollution, pupils have learnt about how this impacts on the environment including the animals in the ocean. Throughout English pupils have produced presentations, written action plans and letters, finishing the term by creating their own logo and podcast, all based around the theme for the term.

Science has been linked to the topic for the term, looking at Energy and Electricity. Within the term we have researched renewable and non-renewable energy sources including the advantages and disadvantages. We then looked at power stations and the generation of electricity, along with building our own parallel and series circuits.

Maths lessons have been impressive with pupils showing the ability to really challenge themselves we have been looking at algebra. Pupils have looked at sequences, solving equations, writing algebraic equations and some even being able to rearrange them.

This term will involve us completing a book study on The Nowhere Emporium, along with looking at shapes in Maths, moving on to angles and Pythagoras theorem by the end of the term. Within Science we will be looking at Nutrition and Digestion.
