Welcome to Chestnut Class. We are a mixed class of year 3 and 4 children. Our class teacher is Miss Haresign, and our trainee teacher is Mrs Hussey. Our learning support assistants are Mrs Duffy and Mrs Wood.
During the Spring Term, Chestnut Class will be 'Time Travellers' and focus on Roman Britain in their History lessons. We will learn about their impact on Britain and what they left behind.
Traditional Roman mosaics will inspire our Art lessons, and we will look at the work of Antoni Gaudi.
In our Geography lessons, we will focus on the question: Are all rivers the same as our local rivers?
During the first half term in Science, we will study the water cycle and how things change from a solid to a liquid and a gas. After half term, we will explore forces and magnets.
In Design Technology, we will be looking at mechanisms. Our knowledge will help us design, make and evaluate a moving toy.
