Punctuation -Brackets, dashes or commas to indicate parenthesis. -Use of commas to clarify meaning or avoid ambiguity. Handwriting pupils should be taught to; -Use the diagonal and horizontal strokes that are needed to join letters and understand which letters, when adjacent to one another, are best left un-joined. -Increase legibility, consistency and quality of their handwriting, for example by ensuring that the down strokes of letters are parallel and equidistant; that lines of writing are spaced sufficiently so that the ascenders of letters do not touch Spoken Language -Use spoken language to develop understanding through speculating, hypothesising, imagining and exploring ideas.
-Speak audibly and fluently with an increasing command of Standard English. -Participate in discussions, presentations, performances, role play, improvisations and debates. -Gain, maintain and monitor the interest of the listener.

Maths (using the White Rose mastery approach to teaching maths) Science Place Value Addition and Subtraction Multiplication and Division Statistics Line graphs Timetables Properties and changes of Materials Compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties, including their hardness, solubility, transparency, conductivity (electrical and thermal), and response to magnets. Know that some materials will dissolve in liquid to form a solution, and describe how to recover a substance from a solution. Use knowledge of solids, liquids and gases to decide how mixtures might be separated, including through filtering, sieving and evaporating. Give reasons, based on evidence from comparative and fair tests, for the particular uses of everyday materials, including metals, wood and plastic Demonstrate that dissolving, mixing and changes of state are reversible changes. Explain that some changes result in the formation of new materials, and that this kind of change is not usually reversible, including changes associated with Fractions Forces Explain that unsupported objects fall towards the Earth because of the force of gravity acting between the Earth and the falling object. Identify the effects of air resistance, water resistance and friction that act between moving surfaces. Recognise that some mechanisms, including levers, pulleys and gears, allow a smaller force to have a greater effect. Decimals Percentages Earth and Space Describe the movement of the Earth, and other planets, relative to the Sun in the solar system. Describe the movement of the Moon relative to the Earth. Describe the Sun, Earth and Moon as approximately spherical bodies. Use the idea of the Earth s rotation to explain day and night and the apparent Geometry Angles Shape Position and Direction Living things and their habitats Describe the differences in the life cycles of a mammal, an amphibian, an insect and a bird. Describe the life process of reproduction in some plants and animals. Measurement Converting units Prime numbers Measurement Perimeter and Area Volume Animals including Humans Describe the changes as humans develop to old age

History The Viking and Anglo-Saxon struggle for the Kingdom of England Can describe the Anglo Saxon invasions, settlements and kingdoms: place names and village life. Can describe Viking raids and invasion. Uses a range of local history resources at Butser Ancient Farm to explore Anglo-Saxon art and culture. Historical Skills Chronological understanding- Can place historical events or changes on a timeline independently, remembering key facts from a period of history studied. Interpretation and enquiry- Uses historical terms appropriately when discussing and understanding concepts. Knowledge and understanding of events, people and changes in the past- Is beginning to develop historical perspective between two periods of history. A non European Society that contrasts with British History Reason and outcome of events and changes in Mayan civilisation Speculate and make deductions from a range of visual clues Pupils learn how to raise valid historical questions and to make inferences beyond the literal.

Knowledge and understanding of events, people and changes in the past- Is beginning to develop historical perspective between two periods of history. Geography Geographical Skills & Fieldwork Can compare land use and geographical features on
different types of maps. Respond to and ask relevant questions about the patterns in the landscape, and make appropriate observations on the location of features relative to others. Is beginning to produce own scaled maps Can identify the best method for recording observations and measurements including sketch maps, plans etc. Human and Physical Geography Can describe how human activity has impacted/changed the physical and human characteristics of the Central American rainforest. Can describe how weather and climate affect land use and food production in regions studied. Understand biomes and vegetation belts of the parts of the world I have studied. Understand climate zones in the parts of the world I have studied. Understand how human and physical processes give continent studied its unique characteristics. Location Knowledge Begin to give reasons for the importance of wider geographical location when understanding places. Recognises and describes the human and physical features of the Central American rainforest. Understand and recognise the position of latitude (incl. named lines) and longitude and hemisphere. Place Knowledge Can describe and explain similarities and differences (physical & human) between a region of Central America and a region of a European country.
Art and Design DT PE Drawing: make observational drawings, using a range of different surfaces to draw on. Printmaking: develop drawings into a relief-printing block. Make a series of prints considering repeat and rotation.. Mechanisms: investigate mechanisms and different types of movements, including levers and sliders Design own moving mechanism, selecting appropriate materials.
