Wrawby St Mary's CofE Primary School
Welcome to Eagle Class (Year 5/6)
Mrs Hotchin (class teacher) and Miss Morley (teaching assistant)
Welcome to Autumn term 1! This term we will be learning all about the Victorian era- why was life in that time so tough for some children?
English
Our class novel is 'Street Child' which shall immerse us into the Victorian era. As we read the book, we shall also research using non fiction texts to develop our understanding.
We shall be writing reports on conditions for Victorian children and then our own stories.
In addition to our English sessions, we have a daily reading session and spelling focus.
Maths
Autumn 1 focus:
- Place value: reading, writing, ordering and comparing numbers
- Rounding to 10, 100 and 1000 (Y6 any number).
- Roman Numerals
- Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division methods
We also have daily Big Maths sessions which focus on basic number and calculation skills.
On Friday we alternate a Big Maths CLIC test with an arithmetic test.
Theme
In history we will be using a range of sources, such as photographs and census information to find out about Victorian life.
We will be focusing on the work of William Morris in art, creating designs in a similar style and trying our patterns out in print to create our own wallpapers!
