Our topic this term is: Who am I?
Science
In science we will be using our super scientist skills to observe closely, use simple equipment, identify and classify, and gather and record data to help in answering questions. We will be identifying, naming, drawing and labelling the parts of the human body, and we will be learning about which part of the body is associated with each sense.
To enhance our learning in science we have an exciting trip planned to Eureka in Halifax. The 'All About Me' gallery will provide an opportunity for children to discover just how amazing and unique they are and how and why they should try to keep their bodies as healthy as possible.
Geography
In Geography this term we will be learning all about the weather! We will be monitoring the weather and keeping a weather chart, learning about how the weather changes throughout the year and learning about the 4 seasons. We will be identifying seasonal and daily weather patterns in the UK, and the location of hot and cold areas around the world. We will be learning all of this whilst using our geographical skills, including first-hand observation, to enhance our locational awareness. We will be using simple fieldwork and observational skills in our school, its grounds and surroundings and using and constructing basic symbols in a key.

Design and Technology
We will be designing and making a weather station (linked to Geography unit). We will be thinking of an idea and planning what to do next, joining materials and components in different ways and learning how to measure materials to use in a model or structure. Finally, we will be evaluating our work and saying how we could improve it.
