This week in literacy we will be linking history into our lessons and learning about Rosa Parks. We will learn about Rosa Park’s story and how she became a significant person in history. We will retell her story through role play/freeze frames sequencing the day Rosa refused to give up her seat on the Montgomery bus. We will then ask questions about her life and sort true or false facts. Lastly the children will create a poster about Rosa Parks and recording the different facts they have learnt using a heading, caption and labels. |

Please note this is a basic overview of the planning for this week. It is impossible to cover in this outline all the learning that takes place during a week! We also believe in listening to your children and responding to their interests and ideas therefore all our planning is flexible. Please note some of the learning will take place across more than one week and during some weeks the learning focus may not cover all curriculum areas.
