Dear Parents,
Your child is about to start Unit 6. The main topic of this unit is
the prehistoric past.
In the unit your child will learn how to talk about what prehistoric people and
animals looked like and what they could do. He/she will also talk about some
objects used in prehistory. He/She will be introduced to this language through
episode 6 of the exciting adventure story A walk with dinosaurs, a song and a
grammar rap: I went to a museum.
In Unit 6 your
child will learn about fossils, dinosaurs and Neanderthal man. Your child will
complete his/her own ‘My Little Fact File of Neanderthals’ to reinforce this
learning. Your child will also learn about prehistoric places in Britain and
play a game to practise saying large numbers.
In this unit your child will have the opportunity to read and write
questions and answers about prehistoric people, animals and fossils. Your child
will also read short texts about dinosaurs and fossils and write a short text
about a trip to a museum, following a model.
Mrs.
Eva.
