Welcome to Sparrowhawk Class

Class Teacher: Miss Carter

Structure

Sparrowhawk class is a mixed age class, combined of Y1 and Y2.

Both year groups receive age and stage appropriate work in line with the national curriculum.

Our Topics

Autumn: Journeys

Last term we learnt about Journeys, by sea, land and sky.

The children learnt about different types of journeys made by animals and humans. The topic was split into two halves: Animal Migration & Transport

Both of our subtopics linked brilliantly to our key text 'The River' by Marc Martin. The whole school explored this text, focusing on different parts of the river's journey to the sea. The Sparrowhawks looked at the river's journey through a busy, polluted city. We used artwork from the book to recreate a city display throughout the main corridor. The children wrote detailed, multisensory descriptions of what they might see, hear, smell, touch or taste whilst journeying on the river through the city.

Spring: Food, Glorious Food

This term we will be focusing on the journey of food from seed to feed. We will explore where all food comes from and how it's produced. The children have already helped set up the classroom farm shop role play area. During this topic we will be visiting a local farm and also making our own produce.
