Maths: Decimals, Time and Money
In Maths, we will be finishing our decimals topic, looking further into the links between decimals and fractions. We will then move on to converting money and explore how to add and subtract it. Then, we will be learning how to tell the time using 12 and 24-hour clocks, telling the time to the nearest minute and converting between analogue and digital time.
Theme: Anglo-Saxons

This term we will be learning about the Anglo-Saxons. We will be exploring where the Anglo-Saxons came from, where they settled and what their villages looked like. We will and learn from many artefacts and explore their ancient runes.
Science: All Living Things
Our Science topic will be ‘All Living Things’. We will be exploring our local area to identify and classify different animal and plant species.
