Downlands Class consists of Year 2 and Year 3 children this year. Mrs Kay teaches from Monday to Wednesday and Mrs Lockrose on a Thursday and Friday. Mr Day is our class teaching assistant. We enjoy working together as a team.
The children are also taught PE with Mr Gardner on Wednesday afternoons.
This term we are studying the topic 'Africa' which will link to many areas of the curriculum. Our English text this half term is 'Anna Hibiscus' - short stories of a young African girl and her family. We will also be comparing places in Africa with our own locality. Later in the term, we will be studying a selection of African plants, animals and habitats.
We are planning a trip to Marwell Zoo in the second half of the term. Further details to follow in the coming weeks. For more information, please see the Spring 1 curriculum map below.
