What We Are Learning About - Summer 2 

“I therefore…beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called.”   Ephesians 4;1

Religion

Our current topic in Religion is  “Penetcost”, we will examine what the gospels of the bible and delve deeper into the teachings and scripture, reflecting on the community and people they were written for. As always we will examine the meaning behind scripture and apply it to our lives, discussing what it means to us in today's world. Our weekly Class Liturgy will be led by the children.

Maths

We begin the term focusing reasoning and recapping previous learning. The children will continue to improve their knowledge of arithmetic through our daily “ Super 6” questions.  We will use this knowledge and apply it to a variety of question styles, concentrating first on fluency and then progressing on to reasoning and problem solving questions. As always we promote oracy in this subject and the children will be using this skill to explain to their peers, how and why they have used methods, ultimately furthering and imbedding their learning.
