The Curriculum

Autumn Term - Beyond Ourselves

This term, our theme is  'Beyond Ourselves'. We will be learning about Europe, building on our learning from year 3 about the United Kingdom. We will be looking at the different countries and describing their similarities and differences. In science, we will be learning about states of matter and electricity. We will be going to Magna to investigate electricity further in a fun environment! Over the term, we will be focusing on three artists to use them as inspiration in art and DT. We will be creating our own sketches of a famous building within Europe and making our own structures for a purpose. In music, we will be learning all about ABBA and performing some of their most famous songs. What a fun term ahead!

Spring Term - All Things Great and Small

This term, our theme is All Things Great and Small! We will be using our geographical knowledge from last term to understand rivers and how they are key aspects of physical geography. We will even be carrying out some fieldwork around the features of the River Meden. In science, we will be learning about animals including humans and living things and their habitats, so keep an eye out for those creepy crawlies! Throughout the term, we will be studying pilgrimages within R.E, where we will use drama to immerse ourselves in our work. In Art, we are focusing on refining our textiles skills and will be creating our own fantasy setting using a range of different materials and techniques.
