Wider Curriculum tasks

Geography - Map knowledge

Last term we looked at our own environment around school. We started with our classroom, working out to our school, its grounds and the wider community. We made simple maps and plans of the area. We were very lucky to have a visit from Ben a drone pilot who helped us to understand how Ariel photographs work. He brought his drone to our school and explained how it worked, and then took photographs of Carlton and our school grounds.

Next I would like us to start looking wider than Carlton and begin to develop our Map knowledge.

This week I would like you to look at as many different types of maps of the United Kingdom as you can.  This could be online versions such as Google Maps or Google Earth, any maps or atlases you have at home. Do you have a globe? 

Can you locate Carlton? 

Science - Everday materials

This half term we are going to start looking at everyday materials.

DT - As many of you are being so helpful at home and enjoying baking with your parents I thought it would be nice to links this weeks DT to food.

Did you know that in Japan there is a Very Hungry Caterpillar themed restaurant?

This week I would like you design your very own caterpillar themed treat. You will need to research, design, make and evaluate.

You could print out or research different design ideas, think about the types of fruits or vegetables you would plan to use and why, and draw your design on paper. Once you have made your caterpillar can you evaluate it? What worked well, what might you change next time?

Here's a few ideas I found.

This one is from the themed restaurant.

Picture News  This weeks picture news looks at - Who are the people you are proud of?

This week Harry and his family decorated our school gates to say thank you to everyone at Carlton School. They are proud of our school community.

New Aire Class Ongoing Task 

We are all very lucky to live in such a nice community.  For our new ongoing project I would like you

to think about the village that you live in. What are the landmarks in your village?  Can you draw a plan.  

We have lots of interesting churches, shops, schools, Drax power station, and houses including Carlton towers. Choose a landmark that interests or is special to you. What do you know about it?

Why is it special to you? When was it built? Can you draw it? Could you make a model of it using boxes or Lego?
