Welcome to Brixworth Class...

Here in Brixworth class you will find our year 5 and year 6 children.  They are taught by Mrs Carpenter who is supported by Miss Rees and Miss Errington.  In the Summer term the class theme is ‘Coast to Coast’ and the children will be geographers whilst finding out about seaside locations around the UK.  They will also spend time focussing on what a coastline is and how it is formed. And also how we use maps to locate human and physical features of the landscape.  They will then look at the purpose of a beach hut in order to design and make their own versions, using computer aided design techniques and a simple electrical circuit.  The links below will show you the areas which will be covered over this term during the topic and will also show you the yearly overview.
