Music Music Vision To develop pupils’ skills and knowledge as musicians, through Performing, Composing and Appraising At South Hill, we believe that music is a powerful, unique form of communication that can change the way children feel, think and act. It is a key feature of our school and we aim to provide many opportunities for our children to thrive in this area. The teaching of music develops children's ability to listen and it encourages active involvement in different forms of music making both individual and ensemble, developing a sense of group identity and togetherness. It also increases self-discipline, creativity, aesthetic sensitivity and fulfilment. Our aims are: To encourage awareness, enjoyment and appreciation of music in all its forms To develop imagination and creativity To help children of all abilities develop positive attitudes and to experience success and satisfaction in music To offer opportunities to perform, compose and appraise Golden Threads As part of our Music curriculum, we have carefully mapped out 3 key concepts that weave in and out of our learning. These are: Performing Composing Appraising Our Curriculum In EYFS, pupils explore sound making in the key area of ‘Expressive arts and Design’ and have opportunities to respond to music through dance, role play and drama both inside and outside the classroom setting. In Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, pupil’s skills and knowledge are developed through our golden threads, which progress throughout the school. Expected outcomes are taken from the National Curriculum and the skills to be taught are drawn from the Model Music Curriculum along with the WEAVE knowledge and skills document. Sing Up and Charanga resources are used as well as our Music specialist teacher. For example: In KS1: Pupils enjoy singing songs together and learn about beat, rhythm and pitch. They also have opportunities to create music together in response to a given stimulus ie. story, picture or theme. In KS2, pupils learn the ukulele and extend their understanding of beat, rhythm and pitch. Pupils learn to read standard notation through learning the glockenspiel and have opportunities to compose music in response to topics and work to incorporate their music knowledge within these projects. Pupils also take part in weekly singing assemblies and have opportunities to join in various musical activities and performances throughout the school year. Please also visit the Young Voices ,Choir and Arts Mark pages Arts Mark Gold South Hill have been awarded a Artsmark Gold Award, which highlighted ’our opportunities for children in Key Stage 2 to participate in instrumental tuition, including ukulele and Djembe drumming. Pupils also participate in Choir extra-curricular club and have opportunities to showcase and celebrate their musical achievements locally and at national events, such as at Young Voices. Our feedback from the the Arts Mark assessors: 'You clearly value the Arts and recognise their contribution to your mission statement of 'Building Character, Learning Together' at South Hill Primary School. Although some of your plans were inevitably stymied by the pandemic, you have used your Artsmark journey to develop children's understanding of arts and artists from a wider variety of different cultural heritages, so that cultural diversity is being promoted through your arts curriculum and your annual International Day. Music is a growing strength within your overall arts offer with lessons provided by a specialist music teacher. Your partnership with Hertfordshire Music Service is providing opportunities for children in Key Stage 2 to participate in instrumental tuition, including ukulele and Djembe drumming. Pupils can also participate in Choir extra-curricular club, and have opportunities to showcase and celebrate their musical achievements locally and at national events, such as at Young Voices. Astutely, you have capitalised on the skills and expertise of various school stakeholders, including a parent who is an animator. This opportunity, along with the chance for children to see a range of artists and makers at work at the Dacorum Arts Centre, has enabled pupils to develop an understanding of carer pathways and job opportunities in the Arts. Teachers' confidence has increased as a result of their training from local secondary colleagues in drawing, watercolour and collagraph printing. We suggest for the future that you strengthen your partnerships with arts and culture venues, and seek out new collaborations and opportunities with arts professionals which could help you to increase your range of offer and provide external, specialist training opportunities for your staff. It is great to hear that you are beginning to develop pupil voice through your Arts Ambassadors, and that they have relished the opportunity to work with your Forest Schools Leader to develop and implement plans to enhance the outdoor area. Congratulations on your Artsmark Gold Award! After a visit from Hertfordshire Music Service we have achieved a Music Mark to celebrate the value that we place on music here at South Hill. Music Mark schools are recognised for their commitment to music education. By being invited to be a Music mark school we can access resources for our staff and pupils and be kept up to date with the latest national and regional sector news and events. This is part of our recognition letter: 'Music Mark works to support and enable the music education sector to deliver high-quality musical and social outcomes for all children and young people. On behalf of Music Mark and from us at Hertfordshire Music Service, we would like to thank you for all the hard work your school does to support this collective vision. Music Mark Schools is supported through a partnership with ABRSM.' 1/16 Music Development Plan Subject Overview Long term Plan Our Arts Ambassadors with the some pieces of Art completed as part of the Arts Mark Award.

Engleză Writing Vision To develop pupils’ writing skills to enable them to write independently in a variety of genres and for a range of purposes. Scopul general al alfabetizării de la South Hill este de a promova standarde înalte de limbă și alfabetizare prin dotarea elevilor cu o cunoaștere puternică a limbii vorbite și scrise și de a-și dezvolta dragostea față de literatură prin lecturi pe scară largă pentru plăcere. La rândul său, aceasta își va dezvolta abilitățile de scriere în toate genurile; formală și informală. Ne propunem să sprijinim acest lucru prin promovarea alfabetizării și utilizarea textelor de înaltă calitate în toate domeniile curriculum-ului nostru. Curriculum-ul național pentru limba engleză își propune să se asigure că toți elevii: (...) citiți ușor, fluent și cu bună înțelegere dezvolta obiceiul de a citi pe scară largă și deseori, atât pentru plăcere, cât și pentru informare dobândiți un vocabular larg, o înțelegere a gramaticii și cunoașterea convențiilor lingvistice pentru citire, scriere și limbaj vorbit apreciați moștenirea noastră literară bogată și variată scrie clar, precis și coerent, adaptându-și limbajul și stilul în și pentru o serie de contexte, scopuri și audiențe folosiți discuțiile pentru a învăța; ar trebui să poată elabora și explica clar înțelegerea și ideile lor sunt competenți în artele vorbirii și ascultării, făcând prezentări formale, demonstrând altora și participând la dezbateri Long Term Plan - Literacy Grammar Plan Subject Overview - Reading Subject Overview - Writing Curriculum Listele de ortografie KS1, LKS2, UKS2 Utilizați butoanele de mai jos pentru a vedea ce învață în fiecare an în lecțiile de engleză.

History We teach a broad and varied History curriculum, at South Hill, which aims to develop skills and knowledge through the following key areas: Chronological understanding – we want pupils to have a clear understanding and a growing knowledge of different time periods and how these link to eachother Knowledge and interpretation – we want our pupils to have a growing knowledge of different societies and periods of time and to begin to understand how historical eras/ civilisations have shaped the world we live in today Historical enquiry – we want our pupils to be able to use artefacts and sources to learn about the past, to be able to ask interesting questions, to examine the evidence and to develop their own points of view about historical events By the end of Year 6, we want our pupils to have a solid chronological understanding of the historical events studied, to have a knowledge of how History has shaped Britain (and the wider world), to be able to think critically and to understand that what has happened in the past is critical to shaping our future. Golden Threads As part of our History curriculum, we have carefully mapped out 7 key concepts that weave in and out of our learning. These allow us to build on previous knowledge and to make links between historical periods and events that we have already learnt to those that we are learning now and in the future: ​ ​ ​ ​ Long Term Plan Subject Overview Examples of knowledge organisers EYFS Year 3 Year 1 Year 5 We have tailored our History curriculum, in some areas, to reflect our locality and local community so that our pupils have a real sense of how history has shaped who we are today in Hemel Hempstead. For example: In EYFS, we focus on the building blocks to our History curriculum by studying our family In Year 1, we take a walk around our local streets, focusing on how houses have changed in the last century. In Year 2, we study our School, how it has changed over time, as well as the local ‘Water Gardens’ In Year 3, we study the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, who visited our town to open ‘The Queen’s Square’ in Adeyfield in 1952 In Year 4, we study the Romans and look specifically at how they took over St. Albans (Verulamium) and visit the museum, Hypercaust and Roman Walls In Year 5, we study Hemel Hempstead and look at how it has changed over the past 100 years In Year 6, we study WW2 and how this impacted our local area Trips and theme days: Our History curriculum is enriched by a number of school trips, theme days and assemblies and these provide excellent opportunities to bring our historical learning to life. Examples are: EYFS - Trip to St. John's Church, Boxmoor and 'Fairy tale castle day' Year 1 - Local homes trip and 'Victorian' theme day Year 2 - Visit by the Fire Brigade (linking to the 'Great Fire of London' topic) Year 3 - 'Stone Age' theme day and visit to Windsor Castle Year 4 - Trip to the Verulamium museum and 'Roman' and 'Greek' theme days Year 5 - Local history walk and 'Viking'' and 'Egyptian' theme days Year 6 - Trip to the RAF museum and WW2 theme day Black History month forms an important part of our History curriculum and every year we complete a whole school project which aims to promote and celebrate Black contributions to British society, and to foster an understanding of Black history in general. This year, we focused on each class reading one of the following books: Fruits - by Valerie Bloom Sulwe - Lupita Nyong'o Wagari's Tree of Peace - A true story from Africa - Jeanette Winter Pupil Voice “History is really interesting and can tell you things about the past and how we can learn from it for the future.” Miles – Y5 ​ “I remember doing a Victorian day and learning about school back then. The teachers were really strict!” Iannis – Y3 ​ “I loved our trip to St. Albans to learn more about the Romans! Did you know that Boudicca led a revolt right where we stood in the park!” Rishika – Y4 ​ “I absolutely love learning about History. Our WW2 topic has been so engaging. I’ve loved every minute of it and now I want to learn even more.” Scott – Y6 ​

Ştiinţă La South Hill School înțelegem că copiii sunt curioși în mod natural și se bucură să exploreze, să investigheze și să pună întrebări. Acest lucru este esențial pentru învățarea științei și le permite copiilor să înțeleagă mai profund lumea în care trăim. Ne propunem să oferim o educație științifică de calitate care să ofere bazele înțelegerii lumii și să creeze cursanți curioși și entuziaști. Încurajăm știința să fie predată prin sarcini practice și, dacă este cazul, prin utilizarea terenurilor noastre școlare extinse, a localității orașului nostru sau a The Box Moor Trust. Prin Știința la școala noastră, ne propunem să ne asigurăm că toți copiii: Dezvoltă cunoștințe științifice și înțelegere, precum și abilități practice de învățare distractive Dezvoltați înțelegerea diferitelor tipuri de anchete științifice care îi vor ajuta să răspundă la întrebări științifice despre lumea din jur Conectați învățarea la viața reală și explorați prin învățarea în aer liber Accesați o călătorie legată de știință în grupurile din tot anul Conectați învățarea științei cu toate celelalte subiecte pentru a aprofunda înțelegerea Programul științific primar este predat în întreaga școală. Lucrul științific și cunoștințele științifice Lucrul științific (sau abilitățile de investigație) se concentrează pe înțelegerea investigației practice și a abilităților necesare pentru a face acest lucru. Aceste abilități includ, observarea, investigarea, clasificarea, adresarea și răspunsul la întrebări, explorarea datelor și lucrul în echipă prin învățare practică. Cunoașterea științifică este înțelegerea faptelor și fenomenelor științifice și a răspunde la întrebări despre învățarea lor științifică. EYFS Elevii explorează știința prin zona de învățare numită „Înțelegerea lumii”. De asemenea, experimentează o sesiune în aer liber numită „Welly Wednesday”. (...) Etapa cheie 1 Știință Centrul de predare a științelor în etapa cheie 1 este de a permite copiilor să experimenteze și să observe fenomene; privind mai atent lumea înconjurătoare. (...) Etapa cheie 2 Știință Accentul predării științelor în etapa cheie inferioară 2 este de a permite copiilor să își lărgească viziunea științifică asupra lumii din jurul lor. Accentul predării științei în etapa superioară cheie 2 este de a permite copiilor să dezvolte o înțelegere mai profundă a unei game largi de idei științifice. (...) Linkuri științifice locale Promovăm și sărbătorim puternic învățarea științei la școala noastră. Lucrăm în colaborare cu The Box Moor Trust, un sit local de alocare, cimitirul Heath Lane, școala Lockers Park, școala Hemel Hempstead și propriile noastre terenuri pentru a ne asigura că învățarea științei este pro-activă și semnificativă. Examples of Knowledge Organisers EYFS Year 1 Year 3 Year 5 Long Term Plan Subject Overview Săptămâna Britanică a Științei Sărbătorim săptămâna britanică a științei în fiecare an, organizând o zi a științei în care elevii au o zi de învățare științifică distractivă, efectuând experimente și investigații practice. 1/4 Lockers Park Anul 6 bucurați-vă de o după-amiază de știință și tehnologie la Lockers Park.
