14.1.22

 Year 5,

It has been another very productive week. You have learnt, performed and written your own narrative poems; considering rhythm and rhyme. In maths, you have compared and ordered fractions with different denominators. You completed your experiments and considered your results in science and you spent an afternoon designing and creating Viking shields – thank you for bringing in your cardboard.

Next week we will begin with our Viking workshop day where you will learn all about the Vikings. Remember to dress up (no uniform required for the day); in the email sent to parents it suggests what you can use that you probably already have at home. We will continue with fractions in maths next week. English will be focus on the environment, which is why your spellings are themed. We will spend a number of the afternoons based on a short art project which will develop your art skills and will also have a little science involved too.

I have already completed your spelling pre-test and have set your half term project today so these will be available in separate blog posts.

Remember:

-    Outdoor clubs (netball and football) return next week

-        Swimming is on Wednesday

-        Reading – please ensure that you read 5 times a week and record this in your Reading Journal. You MUST have your reading book and journal in school every day

-        Spellings – please practise putting spellings into sentences. These are now going to be set on TEAMs as well as shared on the blog.

-        TimesTables Rockstars and SumDog – Please practise on these as it is crucial that you maintain your learning knowledge – these games help you to maintain what you have already learnt and maybe learn a little before we begin in class

Have a lovely weekend.

Miss Huntley 😊
