Welcome to Silver Birch Class

HI EVERYONE!

Next half term looks to be a fantastic term. Our topic is The Shang Dynasty- Ancient China, with our Geography looking at the human and physical Geography that has shaped modern China. In English we will be reading the two texts: The Firework-Makers Daughter by Philip Pullman and The Kite Rider by Geraldine McCaughrean. Please try to purchase a copy or request one from the school so that you can read at home and at school.

In DT we will be making, packaging and marketing our own soups to sell- following on from this half term's trading topic; and in Art we will creating Dragon pictures using paint and pastels.

We will create a website in Computing and our Science work will be based around Materials and Changing States. Our PHSE will focus on Transition and Relationships Education, and our RE looks at Eid and the concept of Sacrifice to Christians and Muslims.

Don't forget to keep your skills sharp on TTRS or Hit The Button. I would also like you to review the Year 5/6 spelling list below and see which spellings you need to practise when you come back.
