We will be revisiting some of the learning from year 3 to ensure the children have no gaps in their learning or understanding before moving on to the year 4 curriculum.
We appreciate that your children have not been at school for a very long time because of the pandemic and so coming back may carry a series of mixed feelings. Therefore, we will also focus on various PSHE areas such as how to rebuild and maintain friendships.
Our topic for the first part of the Autumn term is: What if you had to climb a mountain? As part of this topic, we will be learning all about the different mountain ranges of the world including the Alps, the Andes and the Kumaon region in the Himalayas.
In Science, the first topic we will be looking at is Sound, focusing on how it is made and how it travels. We will also be carrying out experiments to find patterns linking to pitch and volume.
As excited (or as nervous!) as the children may be to come back, we are fully aware that they will need time to re-adjust back into the school routine and so we will strive to make the transition as smooth and as easy as possible!
