Take a look at our classrooms...
Summer Term
Our enquiry question is - What can we learn from a book?
In this enquiry, we will explore how books can help us to learn new things. We will focus on non-fiction books to find out facts about topics such as space, transport and dinosaurs, developing our curiosity and knowledge about the world.
We will then move on to explore fiction, including fantasy stories and traditional tales, helping us to use our imagination, understand storytelling, and enjoy a range of different texts.
Spring Term 2
Our enquiry question is - How does your garden grow?
In this enquiry, we will learn all about how plants grow and what they need to thrive. We will explore the different stages of growth and discover how we can care for plants.
We will also learn where our food comes from, helping us to understand how fruits and vegetables are grown and how they reach us.
Spring Term 1
Our enquiry question is - Does chocolate grow on trees?
In this enquiry, we will discover where chocolate comes from and how it is made. We will learn about the journey from cocoa beans to chocolate, including how it is grown and produced.
We will also explore life and culture in Africa, helping us to understand where cocoa is grown and how people live in different parts of the world.
Autumn Term 2
Our enquiry question is - Who helps us in our community?
In this enquiry, we will learn about the different people who help us in our community. We will explore a range of jobs and roles and think about how these people support us in our daily lives.
We will also have visits from people with different jobs, giving us the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about how they help others.
Autumn Term 1
Our enquiry question is - What makes me who I am?
In this enquiry, we will explore ourselves and our identities. We will look at how we have grown and changed over time, learn about our families, and celebrate what makes each of us unique. We will also share and discuss our likes and dislikes, helping us to understand both ourselves and others.
