Term 6: Scream Machines

Welcome back to the final term of this academic year. We hope you’ve had a restful break and managed to enjoy the sunshine.

This term our topic is Scream Machines.

The children will be learning all about fairgrounds and fairground rides, learning how roller-coaster stay on their tracks when turning upside down. Understanding the need for safety signs and how these need to be presented.

In science, the children will be learning about gravity and air resistance.

In DT, the children will be trying to build their own fairground ride and make it move.

The English this term will be looking at different styles of poetry and then writing own poetry, all based around the theme of fairgrounds. The children will also be writing a narrative and creating adverts.

During our Maths lessons the children will be recapping the topics learnt throughout the year and then applying these skills when solving problems.
