What we do:
In Pavender Class we cover all subjects within the National Curriculum. We focus on the enjoyment of our learning as well as challenging ourselves in all subjects. Everyone works really hard to achieve their best in all areas of school life. Our literacy work is often cross-curricular and makes links to work in science, geography and history. In maths we build on and develop skills learnt in previous years. We cover the four methods of calculation then moving on to problem solving. In addition to this we study data handling, shape space and measure. We do our best to give children practical experience in maths for example through cooking and measuring.
This term our topic work follows the history national curriculum of 'a significant turning point in British History' focussing on The Battle of Britain. This topic work will culminate in a key stage visit to the Fairford Airshow. In our science work this term, we will be learning about electricity. This will include work on circuits, conductors and insulators.
