Foxes (Year 3 & 4)

Welcome back to our Summer term!
We're off to the world of rainforests this term! In English, we'll be enjoying "Ariki and the Island of Wonder" by Nicola Davies. We'll also be trekking in Bolivia with Simon Chapman in "Expedition Diaries, Amazon Basin". In geography, we'll find out more about South America, especially focusing on the rainforest and the people, plants and animals that live there.
In science, we'll find out more about skeletons, the digestive system, teeth and the food that's eaten, both for humans and animals.
In RE, we'll be finding out what it means to belong to a church and exploring our beautiful church next door.
We'll be putting our new sewing skills to work in our DT unit by designing and making pencil cases. Then we'll be exploring the art of Henri Rousseau and the painting "Surprised!".
Throughout the term, we'd like to spend as much time as possible outside so make sure you've always got a coat and your wellies in school!
As usual, Mrs Riddell will be teaching in Foxes on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons and Mrs Cast will be teaching on Thursday and Friday. On Wednesday mornings we will be alternating.
Mrs Riddell, Mrs Cast and all of Team Fox are looking forward to enjoying this exciting term with you!
