In Maths this week, we have started column addition and subtraction methods. The children have really succeeded with this and have shown great problem solving skills! We were Scientists this week and were testing the force of friction with Newton meters. In PSHE, we were studying enterprises and looking at the benefits and risks of starting an independent business. Well done on another great week, Y5!
Another fantastic week of learning in Year 5! This week we have looked at water resistance in Science and have continued to develop our writing in English on ‘The Wolves In The Walls’. As we are celebrating our school’s 60th birthday, we have been practising Mary Poppins’ ‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’ song too! The children have taken a delve into life into the 60s and have looked at food, fashion and toys!
This week in Year 5, we kicked the week off with an amazing trip to Nell Bank. The children worked on their resilience, team building skills and their focus by completing numerous activities throughout the day. The staff at Nell Bank complimented the children on their wonderful manners! We have also started creative writing in our English based on our class reader ‘The Wolves In The Walls’ and in Maths, we are continuing working on place value.
Welcome to Year 5! This term we have got lots of exciting learning coming up- this includes studying forces in Science, studying the Anglo-Saxons in History and looking at finances in PSHE.
The first week back has been a busy one, but all of the children have settled into Year 5 really well. A massive well done!
