Letter to Parents - January 2012
Dear Parents,
Welcome back and Happy New Year to you all. I hope you have had a most relaxing and enjoyable Christmas break.
We are looking forward to another very busy, informative and exciting term in the Rainbow Room. The topics are as follows:-
Science
The Rainbows will be covering two topics in science over the course of the term. Firstly, there will be lots of experiments taking place when we learn about friction and forces. Then, later in the term we will be finding out about moving and growing, making comparisons between the human body and a variety of animals.
History
The children will be learning about famous inventions and their inventors. We will explore ways in which they have shaped or changed the world in which we live. Modern technology, medicine and travel all feature in the syllabus. The children will undertake a related project in the half term break.
Geography
Our lessons this term will enhance learning about issues concerning the world’s rainforests and climate change. The curriculum consists of lots of fun and interactive lessons, designed to provoke further questioning and investigation by the children.
Homework
As you are well aware, homework is an extremely important tool in supporting the children’s learning and we are grateful for your valuable support. Please continue to update the homework diary on a daily basis and feel free to use it as a way of informing me of anything at all you deem necessary, whether homework related or not.
Thank you for your continued support.
Kind regards,
Diane
