Geography

This half term, we explored the city of Liverpool in our Geography lessons. We drew maps of the city and researched the different human and physical features you can find there.

Here are some pictures of our trip to Liverpool!

Autumn 2

English 

This term, we read poems from Valerie Bloom's poetry book "Hot Like Fire". We enjoyed finding out about the author and listening to videos of her reading her poems. We translated some of the poems and even rehearsed and performed them. 

Chester Zoo

We were lucky enough to be visited by Chester Zoo this term. We learned all about native animals and how to protect them. We even got to go to Chester Zoo and see the wide variety of animals they look after. 

Here are some pictures from our trip!

Design Technology

We have been making prototype cars this half term in DT and exploring what works well and doesn't work well with each prototype before designing our final product.
