• Homework

Welcome to our Year 1 and 2 class page. 

    Our Topic for the first half of the Summer Term is:

The Seaside

For this topic, we will be looking at a seaside holiday destination. We will be considering why people choose certain holiday locations and asking questions to create a survey. Then, we will be considering the key physical features of the seaside before moving onto the human features. Finally, we will be using maps to look at both direction and location before presenting our final findings.

In English, we will be studying the story 'Somebody Swallowed Stanley' and using the information to write our own animal fact files. 

We will also consider ways in which we can help the environment and how we can raise the plight of sea creatures so that others may be encouraged to help them. 

Have a look at this website where you can find out about all sorts of sea creatures. https://kids.nationalgeographic.com/

Take a look at our 'Summer 1 Learning Overview' and 'Knowledge Organiser'  at the bottom of this page to see what we will be covering in our curriculum.
