In the autumn term, Year 5 will be learning all about World War Two. We will look at why World War II began, learn about the main countries involved and order the key events on a timeline. We will also learn about the consequences of war on life for those living on the Home Front. In art, we will study the work of war time artist, L.S. Lowry, before producing our own art work inspired by his work. During our D&T lessons, we will be investigating what makes a strong structure and how to join materials together effectively, using this knowledge to design and create our own Anderson shelters. To support our learning, we will be visiting Duxford Imperial War Museum.
