Spring Term 2

'...I can do all things...' Philippians 4:13

Hello everyone and welcome back.

I hope you all enjoyed your week-long holiday and are looking forward to the half term ahead.

Despite still being at home, your behaviour, attitude, hard work and sense of fun is meant I thoroughly enjoyed every second of last term. Let's keep it going until we get back into school.

Once again, most of us will be learning from home. I will ensure a regular routine, providing you with a full and balanced curriculum. I will try to make all your assignments enjoyable and include some fun activities along the way.

We have more exciting topics this half term that are explained on the newsletter attached to this page. We will be reading and writing using our new core book 'The Legend of Spud Murphy by Eoin Colfer' while practising our 'Money' and 'Time' skills in Maths. In Geography, we will take a journey around the world to study 'Biomes', investigate 'Plant Growth' in Science and, in RE, discover how people from different faiths 'Pray'.

I have also attached Knowledge Organisers for Geography, Science and RE. These highlight our learning for the half term and present you with an child-friendly overview. We use this during the beginning and end of every lesson to consolidate the children's learning.

This half term's project will be taken from our Geography topic and focus on 'Climate Change'.

Once again, do NOT worry about a thing. If you have any concerns, however small, I will be there to help you sort them out. Being happy in and out of school is the most important thing.

Here's to another great half term.

Here's to showing perseverance until we get back into school.

Love from Mr T X
