• Bread is an important carbohydrate food group in a balanced diet.
• Students will track how much bread they consume in a week to evaluate their intake.

Session 3:

• Students will design their own bread product for a specific purpose or user.
• Consideration of questions and requirements before designing the bread.

Session 4:

• Students make their designed bread product, focusing on working safely.

Session 5:

• Students evaluate their finished bread product.
• Reflection on what they liked, found difficult, and could improve.
• Discussion of key learning about working with food.

The overall sequence guides students through investigating, designing, making, and evaluating different types of bread.

Computing - We are Meteorologists

This unit will enable the children to:

Learning Outcomes:

• Understand different techniques for measuring weather, including analog and digital methods
• Use computer-based data logging to automatically record weather data
• Create charts and graphs using spreadsheet software to analyze weather data
• Analyze weather data and make predictions
• Practice using presentation software to share meteorological findings

Unit Overview:

• Students will set up their own weather station to collect data over time
• They will use spreadsheets to organize, chart, and analyse the weather data
• Students will interpret data trends and use the information to make weather predictions
• Presentation skills will be developed to effectively communicate meteorological findings

Key Skills Developed:

• Scientific inquiry and investigation
• Data collection, analysis, and interpretation
• Using technology tools like data loggers and presentation software
• Communication and presentation abilities

Spanish

Themes: A number of different activities first to revise and consolidate language covered in Early Learning units but also working towards a simple role-play, learning to both ask and answer the questions. Gradually adding on an extra question each week with an answer but still recycling previous language. There will be greater choice of written worksheets that require phrase level replies as well as word searches, word puzzles and crosswords. There will also be the opportunity to use prompt cards to help prepare for the final task of presenting ourselves! 

Aims:  Count to 20.  Say their name and age.  Say hello and goodbye and then ask how somebody is feeling and answer how they are feeling.  Tell you where they live.  Tell you their nationality and understand basic gender agreement rules. 

Outcome:  I can repeat all my personal details in Spanish, and ask for the same information back, without help or prompts.  I can say numbers 1-20 clearly in Spanish and I can now spell some of these numbers.  I can tell you my nationality and explain how the pronunciation changes according to whether I am a girl or boy.
