Welcome to Swallows Class! 

       Spring Term

The Spring term is here! 

We are very excited to be embarking on a new learning adventure. In history, we are going to be learning about the Anglo- Saxons and Scotts settlements and how they have influenced and changed Britain. This term, our class reader is The Saxon Boy. We are looking forward to going back in time and acquire a better understanding of how the Anglo-Saxons lived. 

In our Art lessons, we will be putting our drawing skills to the test when we illuminate our own letters in the style of the Anglo-Saxons. Did you know that the Anglo-Saxons baked a wide range of breads? That is exactly what we will be baking in our D&T lessons. Yummy!

Autumn Term

The Autumn term has finally arrived and we are very excited to be back at school. 

Swallows class will  be very busy and engaged in their learning across all the areas of the curriculum. We are particularly excited about our History lessons as we will be learning about Ancient Greece. What do you know about Ancient Greece?

Inspired by Ancient Greece, we will write our own short stories in our English lessons as well as writing instructions on how to build a Greek racing chariot.  

In our Maths lessons, we will be revisiting and strengthening  our understanding of number and place value. In Science, we will learn about Electricity by constructing simple series electrical circuits. Have you ever constructed your own electrical circuit?

Look at our curriculum map for more information about the other subjects such as Music, Art, DT, Geography, RE, PSHE, PE and French. As you can see, we are going to be happy Swallows busying ourselves with our learning. What more can we ask for?
