w/c 06.11.23 This week in Year 5!

The children have had a fantastic week! 

 

Both classes have enjoyed performing in music, they have played a range of instruments and have presented their own compositions. 

 

The children have enjoyed learning about Space this work during their reading comprehension and science lessons. They found it very interesting that it is difficult to drink water and that astronauts sleep in vertical sleeping bags.  

 

We are continuing with our Tudor topic this team and this week the children have learnt about Tudor exploration. They have compared Tudor maps with today's world maps and were keen to discover the differences between the two. 

 

In English, the children have written their own fables. A fable is a story with animals as characters and that teaches the reader a life lesson. They have worked hard on creating an individual story with a moral, please ask your child about their writing. During maths lessons the children have been learning to add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions. 

 

W hope that you all have a lovely weekend!
