Our Summer term project is called 'It's all Greek to me!' It provides us with so many amazing experiences to have, knowledge to learn and memories to be made. Our big question is 'What have the Greeks done for us?' and we will see the many things that the Greeks introduced and how they can still be seen in everyday life in 2025.

We will start the term off with our superb starter with an Art Day, creating clay owls linked to Greek mythology. Later in the term, our Mix-it-up middles will be an exciting trip to the Oxford Museum and an Ancient Greek theatre, song and drama day and then finally our Enthralling Endings will be a Greek day and a Greek banquet!

Our curriculum, where we can, will echo our classroom environment and will be themed on all things Greek. Our classroom will have its very own Greek theatre. Our texts will be heavily focused on Greek myths and legends as well as tales of the Gods and Goddesses. We will read 'The Beast of Olympus' and 'Mark of the Cyclops' which we hope will really engage the children.

In our art lessons this term, we will be looking at a variety of Greek sculpture artists and using their work to inspire some clay work of our own, along with sketching Greek columns with the British Museum.

Our geography focus will be centred around comparisons between different areas in Greece and the Isle of Wight.

In history, we will be diving deep into Ancient Greece and all its rich history, exploring how we know about the Ancient Greeks, the Greek philosophers and their great achievements throughout their time period.

In our music lessons, we will be learning about the Greek Chorus and composing different pieces of music for specific purposes.

Our science focus for the term will be on living things, looking at the human body and life cycles of humans, plants and other animals.

Our PE topics will be tennis, athletics, striking and fielding and functional fitness.

Our DT lessons will be on design, using a variety of diagrams and building chariots, working with a range of techniques and skills.

In computing, we will continue our work with Scratch and BBC micro:bits to design, write and debug programs and algorithms, whilst refreshing our memory on online safety.

And finally, our RE topics for the term are Islam and Big Questions.
