Our learning this week -  Summer Term

Immersion week: History

We've spent most of the week immersing ourselves in our new topic: Marvellous Monarchs! Using our History lenses, we've been reviewing a variety of Kings across the ages. First of all, we learnt about Charles III, how he rose to the throne and his day-to-day role. We then compared him to William the Conqueror, moving onto King John 1, Henry III and then James II. We considered the impact of John's reign on democracy (the introduction of the Magna Carta) and when and why the first parliament was introduced (during the reign of Henry III). We then learnt about what an absolute monarch is vs a constitutional monarch and discussed which of the Kings would be which. We completed our learning with a team quiz to test their knowledge!

Science

We began our new topic this week on Plants. Today, the children got to study the different parts of a plant and consider what their roles are and how their design helps them to achieve this. 

We'll be doing PE, RE, PSHE, French and Guided Reading, tying in with our topic theme, where possible.  Our PE days are Mon and Wed. 

Our value this term is friendship.
