Autumn 2 Week 1

Date: 3rd Nov 2023 @ 1:46pm

This week, we have begun our new CC geography unit about California. As part of this unit, we will learn lots about our planet. This week we discovered that there are four main layers to the Earth. The crust, which is the layer we live on, is the thinnest layer, then we have the mantle, then the outer core and finally the inner core. The inner core is around 5000-6000 degrees celsius hot. 

As part of our CC learning, we have begun to read a new core text called I survived the San Francisco earthquake 1906 which contains fictional characters, but it is based around real events.  This week have written similes and methaphors as well as using a range of sentence starters. 

In in our science lesson, we have begun to learn about the digestive system, which is how food travel in, around and out of the body. 

Next week we will be visiting a Hindu Temple on Thursday. Please return your letter if you have not brought it yet. 

Our assembly today was presented by two firefighters who told us all about their work and how we can keep safe around bonfires.

Homework has been sent home today, and spellings/timestables will be tested next Friday.
