Can they describe how plants and animals are suited to their habitat? Can they describe what animals need to survive? Can they explain how animals get their food and draw a simple food chain? Materials Can they describe the simple physical properties of a variety of everyday materials? Can they compare and classify a variety of materials based on their simple physical properties? Working Scientifically Can they use their senses to help them answer questions? Can they use some science words to describe what they have seen and measured? Can they carry out a simple fair test? Can they explain why it might not be fair to compare two things? Can they say whether things happened as they expected? Can they suggest how to find things out? Can they use prompts to find things out? Can they use (text, diagrams, pictures, charts, tables)to record their observations? Literacy Composition Discuss ideas for the content of writing. Plan the content of writing and write down ideas. Write down or annotate plan with key language and vocabulary. Formulate sentences which express their ideas for writing. Orally rehearse structured sentences or sequences of sentences. Write fictional narratives. Write for different purposes. Evaluate writing independently and/or with teacher. Evaluate writing with peers. Make improvements to writing after evaluation. Re-read to check that writing makes sense. Re-read to check that verbs indicating time are used correctly and consistently, including verbs in the continuous form. Proof-read to check for errors in spelling, grammar and punctuation. Read aloud own writing with appropriate intonation to make the meaning clear. Vocabulary, Punctuation and Grammar Use full stops, capital letters , exclamation and question marks accurately to demarcate sentences. Punctuate sentences using commas for lists. Punctuate sentences using apostrophes to mark contractions. Punctuate sentences using apostrophes to mark singular possession. Use a capital letter for names of people, places, the days of the week, and the personal pronoun ‘I’. Develop Sentence Construction Use different forms: statement, question, exclamation, command. Use expanded noun phrases to describe and specify, e.g. the blue butterfly Use present and past tenses correctly and consistently including the progressive form. Use subordination (using when, if, that, or because)and co-ordination (using or, and, or but). Understand and begin to use some features of written Standard English. Use the Terminology Verb, tense – past and present, adjective, noun, noun phrase, suffix, apostrophe, comma, compound, statement, question, exclamation, command. Understand the terminology. Art Can they begin to demonstrate their ideas through photographs and in their sketch books? Can they set out their ideas, using ‘annotation’ in their sketch books? Do they keep notes in their sketch books as to how they have changed their work? Can they use three different grades of pencil in their drawing (4B, 8B, HB)? Can they use charcoal, pencil and pastels? Can they create different tones using light and dark? Can they show patterns and texture in their drawings? Can they use a viewfinder to focus on a specific part of an artefact before drawing it? Year 2 (Challenging) Can they name some characteristics of an animal that help it to live in a particular habitat? Can they describe what animals need to survive and link this to their habitats? Can they describe the properties of different materials using words like transparent, opaque, flexible, etc? Can they sort materials into groups and say why they have sorted them in that way? Can they say which materials are natural and which are man made? Can they suggest ways of finding out through listening, hearing, smelling, touching and tasting? Can they say whether things happened as they expected and if not why not? Forest Academy

LC3: Why are trees more creepy in winter? LC4: How do we see in the dark? visit the woods and take photos of trees Plan a recount of the trip by creating a map. Write a recount of the trip using descriptive language identify different types of trees by their twigs and buds explain why trees lose their leaves in winter draw trees and experiment with using different media to create different effects (charcoal/pastel) find out about animals which live in the woods, what they eat and what eats them. explain what makes a room dark identify natural and manmade sources of light explain whether shiny sources are a source of light learn about how we can use reflective materials to stay safe in the dark identify objects which use electricity investigate how we can make a bulb light up Writing a poem about what we can see in the dark Forest Academy

Create their own character who lives in the woods. Be able to say why and how they live in the woods by talking as the character. Describing appearance, habitat, diet, behaviour of nocturnal animals.
