This half term (Spring 1) our Wider Curriculum Enquiry Question is 'Who Invented Toys?'
The main focus of our learning in this area will be linked to Historical Enquiry with additional links made in Science, Computing and Art.
The children have talked about what they already know and come up with some questions that they want to answer. We have used these questions to create our Homework Menu. Homework can be something physical that the children bring into school, something they talk about or something they photograph (which can be emailed).
Below is the Homework Menu and the Wider Curriculum Enquiry overview.

This half term our Wider Curriculum has a Geography focus. Our enquiry question is 'What is special about where we live?' It builds on our previous History enquiry about Cornish miners and will help develop skills we can use for our Amazon enquiry in the Summer Term.

Class 1 visited Wheal Martyn museum this week as part of our topic 'What was life like for a Cornish miner?'
We had a guided tour of the site from Nolan who used to work as a miner.
We got to look down into the pit and find some pieces of quartz on the floor.
In the afternoon we worked with Gemma to dress up as people from the past.
We have been learning about democracy and today we voted for the people we wanted to represent Class 1 on the School Council. The majority of people voted for Winter in Year 1 and Emmie in Year 2.
They are looking forward to attending meetings with Mr Whipps and feeding back to the class.
Thank you to everyone who came to the 'Meet the teacher' session on Wednesday. For those of you who couldn't make it the PowerPoint is attached below.
