Upper Key Stage 2

Curriculum Projects

Our Curriculum Project for Autumn 2019

Blood Heart!

Join us to explore our circulatory system! Upper KS2 are finding out about the different parts of the heart and how the blood flows. We will see how certain things affect our body like diet and exercise and have a go using some microbits to create our own step counter. As part of our music work, we will use our bodies as percussion instruments and feel our pulse. In English we will create newspaper articles, write flashbacks and non-chronological reports as we make links with our class text, Pig Heart Boy.
