Mapping and Field work. This unit will be based on the wonderful book, 'Martha Maps it out' which will enable us to consolidate last half term's work, by reminding ourselves of key physical and human features and use aerial photographs and plan perspectives to recognise landmarks; devise a simple map; and use and construct basic symbols in a key.

This half term children will learn to identify potential risks to their safety and will develop an understanding of how they can take some responsibility for their own safety in different situations, including examining the need for safety rules in order to keep themselves and others safe.

We will consider exploring safe and unsafe places to play, learning basic road safety skills and how to keep safer if they are ever lost or become separated from a parent/carer.

Finally we will consider what medicines are and why some people need medicines.

In music sessions children will learn songs involving meeting and greeting, with a time change from march to jig.

They will compose new words for the greeting section of the song. Sing a song that includes a time change from march to a jig, play untuned percussion instruments and use movement to show the beat changing.

At the end of the half term we are hoping that most of our children will be confident to perform a song and dance simultaneously.

Jack and the Beanstalk is the Traditional Tale we will focus on in English this half term.

Children will retell parts of the story to their friends to familiarise themselves with the language and structure of the story. When writing the story children will ensure their stories have a complete structure: beginning – middle – end, decide where it is set, include good and bad characters.

We now expect children to write complete sentences; use capital letters, full stops, question marks and exclamation marks to demarcate sentences; use capital letters for names and for the personal pronoun I and join words together using 'and'.
