We will be adding and subtracting 10s from two-digit numbers using a range of contexts and resources including dienes, part-part-wholes and applying our learning to word problems. |

Science |
This week we are working scientifically to answer the question “Are older people always taller?” We will be making predictions, testing our ideas and presenting our results. |
| Foundation subjects | In PSHE we are learning about being proud of who we are knowing that everyone is different. We will also talk about how making mistakes is okay as we learn from them, and they help us improve. In R.E. we are looking at how Christians help God look after the World through charity work. Our music lesson will involve using instruments to enhance a story. |

Please note this is a basic overview of the planning for this week. It is impossible to cover in this outline all the learning that takes place during a week! We also believe in listening to your children and responding to their interests and ideas therefore all our planning is flexible. Please note some of the learning will take place across more than one week and during some weeks the learning focus may not cover all curriculum areas.
