Curriculum

Our curriculum topic for Autumn is the Stone Age to the Iron Age. We will be looking to answer the big question “How did life change from Stone Age to Iron Age?"

In Geography and History, we will be looking at how life changed from the Stone Age to Iron Age using timelines, how food was gathered, farming and their homes. We will also look at Stonehenge and Skara Brae.

 Children will have the opportunity to use our virtual reality headsets to explore a range of artefacts and settlements from this time period.

Science

Our science topic for Autumn is animals including humans. We will be looking to answer the big question "What's under our skin?"

In this unit children will understand that plants and animals obtain food in different ways, identify the right types of nutrition needed in a healthy diet, name different skeleton types, identify the main bones in the body and their uses, and explain how muscles work together to enable movement.
