Class 4 2025 - 2026
Welcome to Class 4!
Welcome back for the summer term! This half term will be as busy as ever, particularly for the children in Year 6 who will be doing their SATS during the week commencing Monday 11th May. We also have a fantastic new topic and lots of great activities and events over the next six weeks
This half term, we will be focusing on Geography and exploring the human and physical features of the Central American country of Mexico. We will be exploring the landscape of Mexico, what are some of the major landmarks across this diverse country and what can we learn about its natural inhabitants? We will be researching the vast Chiachanaian Desert and learning about the cultures that can be found there. The children will also examine some of their festivals, such as the day of the dead, and learn about their importance to the Mexican people. Please ensure your child is learning their Knowledge Organiser facts as there will be a regular quiz.
We are a mixed Year 5 and Year 6 group.
