During the Autumn term, Elm class will be exploring how location, architecture and historical timelines influence the homes that we build. Through Science, Geography, D.T., Art, History and Music we will investigate the dietary needs of humans and animals, discover how settlements have changed over time, build our own towns and even learn how to market them. Each week we will find new clues and items in our 'Curiosity Corner' to help spark our imagination and lead us to new discoveries about our theme.
In Maths we will be learning about place value - recognising and using 4 digit numbers - and geometry -triangles, quadrilaterals and symmetry. We will also be advancing our division, multiplication, subtraction and addition skills - increasing the number of digits and learning new strategies to solve problems. We will continue to work hard to learn our multiplications and have weekly tests. Our national times tables tests take place in the Summer term.
For an overview of our learning this term, please read the parent overview below.
Things to remember:
- PE days are now Wednesday for indoor PE and outdoor PE will continue to be on a Monday.

Reading
Children are expected to be reading at home at least 3 times per week to support their learning. Reading Records should be brought into school every day and will be checked on a Thursday.
Times tables
Children are encouraged to continue using TimesTable Rockstars at home each week. Every child has their username and password to enable them to log in. This will be checked in school, if you have any problems logging in, please speak to the class teacher.
