Welcome to this week's Year 5 Blog.
The last few weeks of Year 5 seem to whizzing by… and what busy weeks they are.
The week started with our fabulous sports day where the children had a fantastic time supporting each other ad taking part in multiple events. Win or lose, great fun was had by all.
In English, we finished our build up to writing based o the short animation “The Piano.” We have been so impressed with the way the children have made the writing their own ad can’t wait to read their independent pieces next week.
In maths we have focussed on area and perimeter this week, including working out missing sides of composite rectangles and squares in order to work their area and perimeter. Next week we move on to volume.
In computing, we continued programming our crumbles to light up and flash, troubleshooting and debugging when needed.
In games we have had lots of fun playing small sided games of cricket, putting in to practice all our batting and fielding skills. In PE we have been, using maths and orienteering, following maps of the netball court.
This week we started our music unit on the blues, listening to a few pieces to get in to the groove before singing along to the piece Lisa Simpson blues, from The Simpsons.
The week culminated with buddy time, where it was lovely to have some end of year free time with our buddies with a focus on fun and friendship.
Thank you also to Felix, an x St. Luke’s pupil who returned to us for work experience.
Have a lovely weekend
The Year 5 Team. J
