What was life like in Tudor England?
We will be discovering the Tudor dynasty; exploring the use of portraits, progresses and punishment; examining how monarchs exercised absolute power; investigating how Tudor inventories indicate the wealth and position of ordinary Tudors.
In science we will be building on our knowledge of contact and non-contact forces, we will explore gravity, friction, air resistance and water resistance, consider the effects of unbalanced forces, plan investigations and test ideas using models to create the most effective pulley system.
In art, we will be investigating the built environment through drawing and printmaking, learning about the work of architect Zaha Hadid, creatively presenting research on artist Hundertwasser and exploring the symbolism of monument design.
In design and technology, we will be applying computing skills to program a Micro:bit animal monitor and using 3D CAD tools in Tinkercad to design a case, housing or stand.
