Oak Class (Year 3 & 4)
Oak Class (Year 3 & 4) - Mrs Cowell
In Oak class, we love to learn whilst having lots of fun!
Oak class is made up of Year 3 and Year 4 children and are taught by Mrs Cowell as well as fantastic support from Miss O' Hara.
Summer Term - Misty Mountain Sierra
During this term, we’ll find out where the highest mountains are, learn how to use a compass and make 3-D mountain models. Inspired by the magnificent mountains of the world, we’ll complete graphs showing heights, look at webcam and satellite images and create wonderful weavings. Using our literacy skills, we’ll write mountain-shaped poems and compose songs about the water cycle. We’ll also examine how mountains are displayed on a map.
At the end of the project, we’ll think about our personal ‘mountains’. What are our goals and how will we achieve them?

School Value this half term: Respect
