Teacher's Comments
Welcome to Wilberforce.
We are named after an inspiring British Politician who led a movement to abolish slavery in the 1800s. Despite various setbacks, Wilberforce was able to convince various people to stand by him and eventually abolish the Atlantic slave Trade. Our class will adopt a similar attitude in becoming resilient learners and understanding receiving setbacks is fine.
We have many exciting themes of learning we will be looking at across the year. The first theme is exploring our Solar system as Stargazers with a great book that supports our learning in Hidden Figures. We will be reading about amazing mathematicians who overcame various prejudice, as they contributed significantly to the NASA programmes. In addition, they will be flying around the world researching the seven wonders, exploring different historical times like The Mummy Returns. Focuses on life cycles and the importance on how different environmental conditions can affect these cycles of life. We unpick the Maya civilisation with 'Mayan Mysteries' theme looking at who they were, where they lived and who they believed in.
We have set ourself goals in which we want to achieve, whether that be inside or outside of the classroom. Please keep updated with all our learning and share their learning on our google classroom.
