Shaw-cum-Donnington C.E. Primary

Welcome to our new term Badgers.  This term, children will study the Anglo Saxons in History and explore our local area in Geography.  As artists, children will be focusing on developing their drawing skills and working with food and nutrition in DT.  In Science, we will be investigating living things and their habitats.  In RE we will be exploring Sikh stories and then discussing what is best for our world. English will have a text focus on Skellig, Beowulf and Macbeth.  Writing genres will include: narrative viewpoint, suspense, persuasive adverts, playscripts and newspaper reports.  Maths will focus on geometry and problem-solving skills.

PE days are Wednesdays and Fridays.  Badgers will need to come to school dressed in their PE kit please.

Homework is set on Fridays and should be handed in on Wednesdays.  However, during our busy summer term, a vast proportion of homework will be concentrated on learning lines and making preparations for our exciting summer term performance.  Spellings and times tables will be tested on Fridays and Reading Journals will be collected in every Thursday. Badgers all have their own Homework Diary to help them organise their school week and keep track of key dates and homework set.
