History

Local History – Who were the Pilgrim Fathers?

Throughout this topic we will be looking at whom the Pilgrim Fathers were and why they left for the new world. The link the Pilgrim Fathers have to Boston will be uncovered as the children will learn about the Scrooby Congregation’s 1st attempt to escape to the Netherlands and their arrest which lead to their stay at the Guildhall. The children will also learn about the Pilgrims first encounter with Native Americans and how they managed to survive the first winter in Massachusetts.

Science

Grouping and Classifying

This project teaches children about grouping living things, known as classification. We will study the animal and plant kingdoms to discover how they can be classified differently. The children will use and create classification keys to identify living things.
