Curriculum Overview

Summer Term

Final term of Key Stage 1 

As we enter the final term of Key Stage 2 for these children, I would just like to say how well the children are doing and how much progress they have made over the year so far.

We will be working towards writing a story based upon the wonderful work of Paul Linnet and Sue Hendra. We will using Supertato and their other books for inspiration and the children already seem hooked.

In Maths, we will be covering fractions, time and shape. Please help your children at home with these tricky topics. This can be done by asking them to share different items equally to create fractions (everyone loves to share chocolate bars or sweets)

We are continuing to use Little Wandle and have begun our journey on becoming better spellers.  Please see the Little Wandle website here if you want any initial support with these. 

We use White Rose Maths and we'll start this term with work on Place Value, ensuring that we are confident with using numbers to 100. We will then move on to some Addition and Subtraction, followed by  work on Shape at the end of the term. We will also be having a focus on telling the time across the term.

Topic

In History we will be looking at a local study of Manchester and the Cotton Mills. We will be looking at how and why Manchester became such an important destination for the mills. We will be having our class trip to Quarry Bank Mill in Styal to carry on with this topic.

PE

The children will have PE on Thursday afternoon. The children will be outside as much as possible this term because we love using the amazing space that we have here at Marton. Please make sure that your child has a coat in school and the correct PE kit for Thursday. If there are any changes to PE or if the children will need PE kit on any additional days, I will let you know.
