Year 5 – 09/09/22

/in /by

Welcome to Year 5! We’ve had a wonderful first week back and it’s been lovely getting to know the class. We began the week with a walk across the field to the pond; excitement ensued when a tiny frog came to join us!

Also this week:

  • We kicked off our Year of Pilgrimage, which is our whole-school focus for this year;
  • We held the World Cup of Books to choose our class reader for this half term;
  • We learnt vocabulary for different jobs in French;
  • We discussed our mission prayer values and where we are taught these in the Bible;
  • We began our Science topic about the different stages of human development;
  • We started to build on our place value knowledge in Maths;
  • We explored how effective well-chosen vocabulary can be in English;
  • We played collaborative and communicative games in PE;
  • We wrote beautiful prayers and letters to Her Majesty the Queen. May she rest in peace.

Here is this week’s home learning. Spellings will be tested next Friday; the other tasks are due next Wednesday. Please let me know if you have any difficulties accessing the online learning platforms.
