Term 4
We are looking forward to moving into Spring with Diamond Class and enjoying the longer and hopefully warmer days.
Curriculum overview
This term our topic is 'London'.
We will have a history, geography and art focus exploring where London is and some of the famnous landmarks. We will also learn about The Great Fire of London and what it was like to be alive in 1666. During art we will explore cityscapes and the work of Stephen Wiltshire, who draws them accurately from memory. We will also be looking at fire in art and using a range of material to create art masterpieces.
