Term 3
English
In Term 3, our class text is Emma Jane's Aeroplane by Katie Haworth. We will begin by familiarising ourselves with the story, using role play and stick puppets. We will also sequence events in the story and explain what is happening during main events in the story. Later on in the term, we will be learning about newspaper articles and writing a newspaper article about Emma Jane's amazing adventure around the world.

Special people who help us
We have been thinking about the special people in our lives who are there to help us. We thought of family members, school staff and people in the wider community, such as doctors, firefighters and nurses. The children wrote lists of their special people and drew pictures of them.
Art
In Art, we are focusing on portraits and self-portraits. We started off by becoming art critics! We looked at famous portraits and self-portraits, discussed them and then critiqued them. We will be developing our skills in drawing faces in order to produce portraits and self-portraits.
