What does provision look like for those with additional needs in Mantarays class?
Outlined in the document below are the waves of provision we use to support children with additional needs. Support is tailored to each individual and provided as needed, with or without a diagnosis. Please talk to your child's class teacher if you have any concerns about your child, their needs or the provision in class. You can find further information on the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities page on our website. This is where you will find our vision for SEND pupils, and our SEND information report which outlines what we as a school can offer.
Term 4 Knowledge Organisers
Term 4 Timetable
Term 4: How can impact be measured?
Each term our learning will be themed around a key question.
Our Term 4 topic is called, 'How can impact be measured?' and we will focus on the themes of: Environment/Well-being/Consequences/Responsibility.
Our Rich Text: Everest: The Remarkable Story of Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay
Their names were Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, and the roof of the world was Everest. This is the breathtaking story of how two very different yet equally determined men battled frost-biting temperatures, tumbling ice rocks, powerful winds and death-defying ridges to climb the world's highest mountain.
We will be using our rich text as inspiration for writing in English lessons. This term we will be writing persuasive advertisement leaflets, newspaper reports and poetry.
