This term we are learning about deserts and thinking about whether we would like to live in a desert. Our D.T, Computing and R.E are all linked to learning about hot cross buns! In D.T we will be designing and making our own hot cross bun. In Computing, we will learn how to use spreadsheets to work out the cost of our ingredients. In RE, we will be looking at the symbolism of the hot cross bun and investigating if Christianity is still relevant today. Our Science topic this term is all about Evolution and we will be learning about Charles Darwin. In Music, we will be continuing to learn the recorder.
