Earth Heroes
This half term our topic is Earth Heroes and in English we are researching and writing fact-files on influential people, 'our Earth Heroes' who work to help protect our earth and the animals in it. Our Science this half term is exploring forces and investigating friction. In RE we are looking at places for worship within different religions. In Art we are excited to be having a go at some Pop Art and finally Computing will be exploring how systems work.
