English
Autumn 1
This term our English work was focussed around the book 'Journey' by Aaron Becker. This book is beautifully illustrated and really caught our imagination. We enjoyed lots of exciting role play tasks linked to the book and created some wonderful flying machines of our own.
Autumn2
This term our English work was focussed around 'A Bear Called Paddington' by Michael Bond. We have all LOVED reading this book and comparing it to some clips from the film. We created our own adventures stories with Paddington as the main. They really made us laugh because he is constantly getting into trouble! We also got to try marmalade for the first time. The majority of us loved it!
Spring 1
This term we have read 101 Dalmatians by Dodie Smith. We have really enjoyed learning lots of new vocabulary and trying to use our new vocabulary in our writing. We have looked at words such as canine, obedient, chauffer and exquisite. We have written some wonderful diary entries from the point of view of Pongo.
World Book Day 2023
We celebrated World Book Day 2023 by coming to school in our pyjamas. We enjoyed reading our favourite books and had gave each other reviews.
Spring 2
This half term we designed and wrote information leaflets about fictional places in the UK. We used The Big Book of the UK to inspire our writing.
Summer 1
The Enchanted Wood has been one of our focus books this half term. We have loved reading about the exciting lands at the top of The Magic Faraway Tree! We then created our own chapter for the book. It was wonderful to read everyone’s chapters – the characters went on some amazing adventures!
