Autumn 1
Our topic this half term is World War 1.
In English we will be writing a 'finding tale'. The children will learn the text by heart so encourage them to show you at home. The finding tale will be based around events from WW1. Following this we will create our own discussion texts based on the question 'Should people be forced to fight in a war?'
In Maths we will be focussing on place value and securing our understanding of reading and writing, comparing and ordering and rounding numbers to 10,000,000.
In History we will be researching a wide variety of events from World War 1. We will look at the impact of the war both on the front line and at home. Our visit to France will help immerse the children in the topic and show them first hand some of the impact the war still has today.
