Term Theme
This term our topic is called Ancient Arts
This half term, Base 7 will focus on Ancient Greece. Base 7 will learn how Greece was divided into city states (polis) and two of the most well-known city states are Athens and Sparta. In Athens, Greek styles of art, architecture, philosophy, and theatre were developed and how these helped shape our modern society. Also, Base 7 will learn about the first Olympic games. Base 7, will identify this historical period on a chronological timeline and explore a range of sources to gather information about this period of history. Throughout the topic the children will use a range of historical sources within their learning.
Our love to read book this term is ‘Why the whales came’ by Michael Morpurgo. The children have expressed their excitement to read this book. Each day we will read a quality picture book in our reading for pleasure sessions, which all children look forward to at the end of the day.
This term, Base 7 will be focusing on Sound. Base 7 will be able to identify how sounds are made, associating some of them with something vibrating, recognise that vibrations from sounds travel through a medium to the ear. Also, Base 7 will find patterns between the pitch of a sound and features of the object that produced it, find patterns between the volume of a sound and the strength of the vibrations that produced it. Base 7 will also recognise that sounds get quieter as the distance from the sound source increases.
