We will gather ideas to invent our own stories based on the familiar plot using a range of Year 1 punctuation. We will also write a biography of the life of Beatrix Potter.

As Mathematicians, we are continue to build on our knowledge of number and place value of numbers to 40 and using this to calculate addition and subtraction to solve word problems. We will also be learning to calculate using multiplication and division. We will be learning about fractions being equal parts of a whole number.

We will plan a journey for a programmable toy and use information technology to retrieve digital content.

P.E

We will be using our outdoor learning environment to develop orienteering skills, applying our knowledge and vocabulary of position, direction and movement. You can help your child at home by using forwards, backwards, left and right.

Engineering

PSHCE

We will understand how to keep ourselves safe in familiar environments, such as home and school, and unfamiliar environments like the park, near the canal or at the beach. We will learn what to do if someone has an accident or is hurt.

We took part in a Children's University Masterclass by the Canal and River Trust about water safety.

This is what we found out:

If you can swim, you should still not go near the water as it is deep and you don't know what is underneath. (Emad)

If you don't know how to swim, you can wear a safety jacket. (Aila)

Follow SAFE- Stay Away From Edge! (Tanzeela)

British Values and RRS

We will develop our understanding of British Values further by linking them through our learning and in our assembly times. This half term we will focus on Individual Liberty and Mutual Respect and Democracy.

Music

As Musicians, we will be combining pulse, rhythm and pitch when answering the question 'How does Music help us understand our neighbours?'

As musicians, we have been creating our very own compositions using drawings of different types of body percussion. 

Learning Outside the Classroom

Learning outside the classroom is an integral part of learning at Stoneyholme, hence we will be using our outside area for lots of our learning.
