Summer Term 2022
Topic
Art & Design
Our Topic theme this term is The Romans and in Art we have been learning about how the Roman's made elaborate mosaics out of small tiles. We studied a range of designs to give the children ideas and they planned and made their own mosaics. The results looked stunning and colourful.
English
In English we use the Talk for Writing approach and immerse ourselves in a story to help us learn the story structure and to help the children be able to adapt and retell the story. We have been learning the story of Where the Wild Things Are and the children loved making their monster masks.
