Summer Term 2
One Person Can Change the World
Welcome back to school for an exciting 2nd half of our Summer term!
Our new theme, One Person Can Change the World, explores the world of aviation and the significant life of Amelia Earhart (the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean in 1932 and the first person to fly solo across both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans).
As historians, we will explore the history of flight and how they changed the world. This will begin with the first manned hot air balloon flight by the Montgolfier brothers leading onto the first powered flight by the Wright brothers and then onto the achievements of Amelia Earhart.
We’re very excited to read our books all about Amelia Earhart and the extraordinary life she led: Amelia Earhart by Isabel Sanchez Vegara and Maria Diamantes and Who was Amelia Earhart? by Kate Boehm Jerome.
In Design Technology, we’ll become young engineers, exploring mechanisms and how sliders and leavers work effectively. We will be designing and building a moving storyboard to retell the story of Amelia Earhart's trip across the Atlantic Ocean.
It’s going to be an action-packed half term—full of learning, discovery, and fun so please keep checking our Class Dojo for more exciting curriculum updates!
