Term 5
This term our topic is:
Can it snow in the summer?
This topic is all about weather.
We’ll be looking at what the weather is like in the UK in the four seasons. In geography we will explore extreme weather conditions. We’ll also be looking at carrying out some weather experiments in Science.
In RE we’re exploring Christian places of worship and why they’re important to Christians.
Our focus text for English is The Rabbit Problem by Emily Gravett. Mrs Parker has recorded this for you and will post it on class dojo.
The church school value for this term is forgiveness.
Why is it important to forgive others?
Is it always easy to forgive?
The bible story of the term is the story of Joseph and his brothers. Genesis starting at chapter 37 it is a long story. Joseph is very forgiving in this story. Could you be as forgiving as Joseph?
