Year 4 - Kookaburras and Bluebirds

Spring Term - 'Water World'

Why was Henry VIII so fat?

In the Spring term, we will be looking at the Tudors and studying what life was like in that era. Students will be researching different Tudor monarchs including Henry VIII, looking at different explorers such as Francis Drake and exploring the beginning of the British Empire. They will be creating Tudor portraits and designing models of buildings from the Tudor era.  Students will visit Hampton Court to further their learning and learn about the history of the building in relation to the Tudor and Stuart dynasty.  

Throughout the term we will be focusing on decimals, time and money. Students must continue to practice their times tables  so they can know all of them up to 12 by the end of the year.
