Autumn Term

During the Autumn term, we will focus our learning around two topics. We will begin with 'Who am I? Where am I?' and after half term we will start 'Escape to the lakes'. 

Autumn 2

Escape to the Lakes

This half term our theme is Escape to the Lakes. As geographers, the children will focus their learning around The Lake District. They will learn about the reasons why people visit and how mountains are formed. 

As scientists, the children will learn about states of matter with focus on the water cycle. They will use their science knowledge to write an explanation text about the water cycle. 

As artists we will be inspired by the wonderful David Hockney. We will draw landscapes based on his style. 

Please see below our 'big picture' for extra information. 

Autumn 1

Who am I? Where am I?

We started the year with the theme Who am I? Where am I?  Our all about me topic, within science lessons, we explored our teeth and digestive system. We will learnt the different purposes of teeth and what happens when we eat food. 

In history, we delved into the significance of Basing House. Looked at the impact it had on the first English Civil War. 

In DT, we made photo frames. Year 4 were challenged to see it they could make their photos spin. 

We created portraits of ourselves and enjoyed learning how to look after our hearts in Heartsmart.
