Summer Term 2023

The topic this term is ‘The Big Build’ and all other work will be based around this. We will look at maps of the world and will research famous bridges in all of the continents. We will look at different countries, their capital cities, rivers and oceans. In design and technology, we will compare the structures and materials used for different bridges, including aqueducts and viaducts and will be involved in making their own bridges.  We will learn of the different types of bridges and will learn how to identify types by looking at specific features. In history, we will use a range of sources to find out about Thomas Telford, the famous structures he designed and built and think about why he is a significant figure in history. In Art, we will look at paintings that feature bridges, such as Monet and his famous water lily Impressionist paintings, and be involved in exploring the artistic techniques of such artists. In Music, we will be exploring pitch and tempo and then creating superhero theme tunes. During PSHE, we will focus on ‘Living in the Wider World’ which will allow us to explore where money comes from and why we need it, jobs in the community, the use of the internet and what belonging to a community means.
