It's the summer term and we are about to learn all about 'where we live'!
We are very lucky to have lots of interesting history within the local area, for example: the world famous novel 'The Borrowers' by Mary Norton was inspired by The Cedars, which in more recent years is known as Leighton Middle School. Additionally, we will looks closely at The Leighton-Linslade Living History trail and all the incredible people that came from, and contributed to our brilliant market town.
The Borrowers will be our key text for English which will be used to produce a variety of writing genres including: Non chronological reports, Posters, Emails and Balanced arguments.
In geography we will be using a range of maps and aerial photographs from both the past and the present to compare and contrast, what's different? What's the same? Alongside this, we will be using ordinance survey maps to try and get to grips with grid references.
