Our Topic -Spring term
Coastline
In the Coastline project, your child will use maps to learn about the location of the world’s seas and oceans and keys to learn about map symbols. They will also find out about the directions on a compass. They will learn about the human and physical features of a coastline, including the effects of erosion and how to stay safe when visiting the coast. They will have the opportunity to learn about the work of the RNLI, what happened to the SS Rohilla and about the coastal town of Whitby, including how Captain Cook is linked to the town. They will research the tourism industry and consider what features make a place a successful tourist destination.In the Coastline project, your child will use maps to learn about the location of the world’s seas and oceans and keys to learn about map symbols.

Home Learning and Homework
Homework - We send homework home in a cardboard file, this is named and should be returned to school each week with the completed homework in. Remember to put your child's name on it.
Homework will alternate between Maths and English/Topic.
Date set - Wednesday
Date due - Monday
Reading - Journals to be in school every day with your child's reading book. Your child will be given two reading books, one from their phonics lesson which they should be able to read, and one of their choice to be enjoyed at home. Encourage your child to read to you daily. Studies stipulate that reading for pleasure not only improves literacy skills but also maths and other areas of the curriculum.
