Information

Topic: 

It Rocks!

This half-term we are going to be learning about history and science.

We will be looking at life in the Stone Age and Iron Age to try to answer the following questions.

• What was life like in the Stone Age?
• Were Stone Age humans simply hunters and gatherers, concerned only with survival?
• How different was life in the Stone Age when humans started to farm?
• What can we learn about life in the Stone Age from a study of Skara Brae?

In addition, we will be learning about ‘Rocks and Soils’ , exploring different types of rocks and understanding how they are formed.

Reading: 

Please read with your child as often as possible at home. This could be just a few pages of their home reader book, or even their favourite book at home! There is no need to record this at home. However, we will record all reading in school with an adult.

PE:

PE slots are as follows:

PE is on Monday (inside) and Wednesday (outside)

Please wear your Knights Enham PE kit into school on these days. You will need a purple school jumper, or new school hoody over the top. In the event of really wet weather, please provide appropriate clothing (wet weather coat).

Please do speak to us if you have any queries or concerns.
