Year 5 – 22/11/24

/in /by

Yesterday, we enjoyed a trip to see Shrek The Musical at Mount Grace School. The children loved it, especially meeting the cast for high-fives and autographs afterward!

In Science, we researched the planets of the Solar System, while in Maths, we wrapped up our addition and subtraction topic. In English, we used figurative language to create vivid setting descriptions.

In RE, we explored the prophet Elijah and his faith in turning people back to God. This week’s Collective Worship, led by Herbie, Dudley, Emilia, and Rose on the theme of Christ the King, was excellent—well done!

Today, you received a letter about our school trip later this half term to the STEM Discovery Centre to support the children’s Science learning on Space. We need a couple of parent helpers to accompany us, so please let me know if you can help. Thank you!

Home learning this week is learning spellings (below) and practising lines and lyrics for the Advent Service (on Wednesday 4th December at 6:30pm). Lyrics and YouTube links can be found here.

This week’s spellings to practise on EdShed:

  • dependable
  • reliable
  • comfortable
  • possible
  • understandable
  • horrible
  • reasonable
  • terrible
  • enjoyable
  • incredible

Enjoy the weekend.
