Autumn 1 - Deadly Dinosaurs!
English this half term:
Non-fiction writing
Through our History lessons we will write for a lot of different purposes. We’ll use different sources to help write fact files and research the types of dinosaurs to write about our own!
Fiction writing
We will then move on to learning a text map with the story of the Little Green Dinosaur. We will use actions and movements to remember the story off by heart. Then we will write our own version of the story using different sentences types and vocabulary that we liked from the original story.

Spring 1 - Our Planet!

Firstly, we shall be looking at a range of different animals to create poems about them. We will learn that all these animals are unique in their own way and create acrostic poems to highlight this.

Later in the half term we will soon discover that the animals we love and have researched are endangered. Some have even recently become extinct! We shall use persuasion to try to convince people to protect them.
