In Maths, we will start the term with a week focusing on time, converting from a analogue to digital clock. Then, we will be spending some time looking into the properties of shape which will include identifying the different types of angles and comparing them. We will then look at statistics including different methods of presenting data. We will explore how to position and direction on a coordinate grid.

We will be continuing the topic ‘All Living Things’. We will be exploring our local area to identify and classify different animal and plant species. We will investigate how when environments change, they can pose a risk to wildlife and find out how we as humans can limit this - making our own bug-friendly hotel in the process!
