A knowledge organiser is a summary of the key facts and essential knowledge that pupils will learn in a topic/half term.

How can I use the knowledge organiser to support my child’s learning at home?
Knowledge organisers are a clear and easy way for you to understand what your child is learning in school.
Each week, we detail our learning focus and key vocabulary (star words) on our weekly overviews emailed home. Use the knowledge organiser to support your discussion about learning at home and prepare your child for their future learning in school. This will mean that pupils come to school already having some understanding of the key vocabulary and key facts needed to be successful for that lesson.
Alternatively, use the knowledge organiser to reflect upon learning in school. Question and quiz your child on their learning, supporting them in retaining and retrieving knowledge for life-long learning.
