Lower Key Stage 2

Our Curriculum Project for Autumn 1 is 'Urban Pioneers'

Urban Pioneers

Let’s take a trip to explore our cities! We will start by designing our own model city as we discuss the variety of different buildings that can be found in one. We will look at architecture and explore the work of Gaudi. We will look at everything York has to offer and compare it to some other major cities across the world using Google maps and zoom in to take a closer look. For our Art we will be looking at Graffiti and the works of Banksy and have a go at creating our own pieces.
