Foundation Subjects

Autumn 2

History

Our first topic of the year is 'The Great Fire of London.' Children will learn about London then and now, comparing housing, transport, emergency services and much more! They will learn about Samuel Peyps and the significance of his diaries to history and will use a range of sources to find out about the past.

Religious Education

We will explore Christianity and how Jesus fits into the religion. The key area of the unit is learning about Christmas and the period of Advent, when Christians prepare for the coming of Jesus. As part of this unit, we will visit Liverpool Anglican Cathedral to learn and consolidate our new knowledge.

We will have our online saftey lesson first, followed by our presenting sessions. We will create a powerpoint presentation about the Great Fire, using images and text.

We will learn the songs from our nativity 'Baubles' as part of our music curriculum, whilst learning and performing a new song from Charanga, using accompaniments.

PSHE

Our first lesson will be from the No Outsiders programme, focusing on inclusion.  Then our lessons will explore peer pressure, similarities and differences, showing repsect and working collaboratively with others.
