Clarkson Class, are you ready to immerse yourself in some new, exciting topics for this term? 

Be transported to a different time period in history? Become experts in electricity and sound? Learn about the Baltics and the Balkans? Will you become the next Matisse in our art lessons? 

Your child will become immersed in and study: The Ancient Romans time period in history (including the the rise and fall of the Roman Empire and life in Ancient Rome); Eastern Europe and Northern Ireland in geography; electricity and sound in science and look at collage and use of colour in art! This is just to name a few....

Delve into the curriculum overview to find out what else your child will be learning about this term!

In this area, you will also find the homework menu for this term. At your own pace, in addition to reading daily and practicing your statutory spellings and multiplication tables regularly, work through the range of activities and upload your masterpieces to your class dojo portfolio. We look forward to seeing them!
