Term 4 Connected Learning

Over the next term we are going to be investigating our big question ‘What can we learn from events in the past? The Victorians'. We will be learning about The Victorians and making comparisons between life now and then.

Our Connected Learning incorporates Science, History, Art, DT and Music. In Term 4 we will be studying the life of The Victorians. Our in-depth study will focus on Queen Victoria, The Victorians and making comparisons between life in the Victorian Era and life in 2025. In Science, we will be taking part in a range of investigations and focusing on the Science skills needed for investigation. In ICT, we will focus on algorithms and programming. Our PE learning this term will encourage the children to develop their ball skills and apply these to team games. In RE, we will be answering the big question ‘Why does Easter matter to Christians?’

Home Learning

We are asking your child to compare their own life to the life of a Victorian child. The children are welcome to present their work in a range of ways. For example, a recorded news report, a poster, a leaflet or a powerpoint (converted to PDF in order to upload to Seesaw).
