Term 1 - Childhood
How has life changed in the last 50 years?
This term, we will learn words and phrases related to the passage of time. We will explore artefacts to help us to understand childhood in the past and how childhood has changed over time. We will explore the six stages of life and explore timelines and family trees. Everyday life in the 1950s will be explored, including shopping, transport, family life and childhood. We will also learn about the significance of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation in 1953 by studying photographs and online sources.
Take a look below to see what Dolphin Class will be learning this term!
**HOME LEARNING**
Please ensure that you listen to your child read 5 times a week and that you are supporting them to login into Times Tables Rockstars and Ed Shed daily. Your child's login details can be found in their reading record. We will be monitoring this in class and changing reading books every Friday. If you finish reading your book before, then please re-read it for fluency. We will be sending home 2 reading books: 1 based on their reading level and 1 book of their choice.
If you require further support, please find someone in the Dolphin team.
