Carlton Colville Primary School

We have lots of fun activities planned around our continuing topic ‘Around the World’ and this half term we will be focussing on Australia and Africa. When learning about Australia we will explore animals, landmarks, climates and write a short story based on the folk tale ‘What Made Tiddalik Laugh’. When focussing on Africa we will be finding out what the children already know about the continent and asking them what they would like to find out.  Our activities will be mainly planned based on the children’s lines of enquiry but will include a trip to Africa Alive (on wednesday 26^th June) and lots of cultural comparisons.  As Mathematicians, we will further develop our addition, subtraction and problem solving skills and also learn more about 2d and 3d shapes.  As writers and readers we will continue to build on the literacy skills we have developed to apply them in different situations.  We will also be looking forward to exciting opportunities such as Sports Day and our transition to Year One.
