WELCOME TO YELLOW CLASS
Overview
This half term, we'll be concentrating on developing our geography skills. Our lessons will cover learning about our local area, using atlases to locate the United Kingdom, and exploring aerial maps to examine where we live. As part of this topic, we'll be taking a trip to our local park to observe human and physical geography features, and we'll use our school grounds to reinforce this knowledge. Additionally, we'll focus on writing simple captions and sentences about what we've learned, while also practicing our phonics. What a fantastic topic to kick off the year!
