During the summer term, we will be reading Kensuke's Kingdom.

In History we will be studying the Tudors. We will explore the character of Henry VIII using portraits and written sources, why he had so many wives, and why Anne Boleyn was executed. We will also explore life in Tudor times. 

In Geography we will be studying Deserts. We will be exploring the characteristics of hot desert biomes and features of desert environments, as well as how people use deserts and the threats of desert environments. 

In Science we will be studying ‘Unbalanced Forces’ and ‘Human Timeline’. In Unbalanced Forces we will build on our knowledge of contact and non-contact forces, exploring gravity, friction, air and water resistance and their effects. In Human Timeline we will explore how humans change from a baby through to old age, including puberty, measurements of growth and gestation periods.

In PSHE we will be studying Citizenship and Economic Well- being. In Citizenship we will understand what happens if the law is broken, explore links between rights and responsibilities, understand how to help the environment, and recognise the contribution people make to the community. We will also begin to understand how parliament works. In Economic Well- being we will learn to manage money, understand borrowing, be cautious online, and align interests with future careers.
