Giraffe Class - Year 3 and 4

Welcome back Giraffe Class!

 

TERM 2 - INTERCONNECTED WORLD

In the Interconnected World project, your child will use compasses to plot points on a map. They will revise four-figure grid references before learning about six-figure grid references to accurately pinpoint features on a map. They will identify the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn and understand the characteristics of a tropical climate. Your child will learn about the countries, climates and culture of North and South America. They will identify significant physical features in the United Kingdom and use their map reading skills to learn about the National Rail network. The class will conduct an enquiry to prove a hypothesis and use maps and surveys to gather information and draw conclusions.

 

Our PE days are: Monday and Thursday

Please come to school dressed in your PE kit on these days with earrings removed and long hair tied up.
