Owls

Welcome to Owls Class!

 

Owl class is taught by Mr Armstrong and Mr Dennis. 

Summer Term 2023

 

Topic

 

Our topic this term is the all about Rivers. Through science, geography and work in literacy, children will develop an understanding for the key features of river systems and their importance to our environment. Children will look at the habitats formed around rivers and the wildlife that can be found their. We will also investigate how human activity can affect features of the environment and what we can do to help.

 

Science

 

Our topic in science this term is Living Things. We will initially study the food chains, identifying producers, predators and prey. We will investigate how to classify animals and learn how environments and habitats can change over time.

Through investigation, we will learn about the key characteristics of different animals and how to classify them.

 

Art

 

During this term we will be focusing on landscapes in our art lessons, with a focus on the both rivers and urban environment. Children will record their observations through drawing and photography. They will investigate different sketching techniques and learn about perspectives to create our final pieces.

Weekly Routines

 

We have PE on a Tuesday and Friday. Please ensure that PE kits are weather appropriate and are worn on PE days. During the first half term, we will have Forest Schools on a Thursday afternoon so children will need appropriate clothing for outdoor activities (e.g. waterproof coat, extra warm layers, wellies).

 

Home learning is set on a half termly basis and will take the form of 6 creative tasks on Seesaw. 

 

KIRFS should be practiced weekly and will be assessed on Wednesday and Thursday each week, 

 

Spellings are given out on a Thursday, practiced through the week, and tested again the following Thursday. The spelling activities are completed in class but your child will bring home their weekly words in the spelling book to practise at home.

 

Rewards

Each class in school uses an online platform called Class Dojo. Dojo is a points system that allows us to reward effort, consistency, demonstration of our core values, growth mindset and kindness. As well as collecting points individually, the children are also collecting points for their newly allocated School House. The House with the most points at the end of the year will win the House Cup.
