Gods and Mortals
Our topic this half term is called Gods and Mortals. The children will explore the fascinating world of the ancient Greeks from their daily lives to famous places they built and achievements that they brought to the modern world like the Olympics!
In English, we will read mythical tales involving Greek gods such as the story of Medusa. Using what we learn we will look to write our own stories or change existing ones.

In science, the children will be learning about different forces: push, pull, twist and friction before experimenting with magnetism. The class will investigate, by creating their own experiments, the strength of magnets and friction.
