Autumn 2007
Our topic this term is Ancient Egypt.
We will be learning how ancient Egyptians lived and what we can tell from evidence like objects and carvings. In Science, we will be studying forces and magnets. In Faith we will be asking "What is Faith?", & studying worship in the Christian community. Our Life topics are 'Transitions' and 'New Beginnings' as well as preventing bullying.
 
Guardians and teachers can write about reading books in the reading diaries and about anything in the Planners, but especially weekly targets and events.
 
Guardians should feel free to contact me directly on any matter.
 
Don't forget that every child must have a coat and should have a sensible hat in school every day; caps are best. On sunny Thursdays and Fridays you may want to use sunscreen for P.E. as well: put some on in the morning or bring some in a sealed plastic bag.
