Year 5

Collage

31st January 2019R Smith

In year 5 we have started looking at collage. We sketched animals from the rain forest then used different types of paper, card and tissue to collage the image. We had a great time! Here are some of the examples next to a sample of the images we copied from.

Year 5

Year 5 Spring Term Focus Text

30th January 2019R Smith

In class 11 we are learning about the rainforest. We have read The Great Kapok tree which is a book all about deforestation. From this we wrote balanced argument, giving views both for and against rainforests being destroyed.

Our class novel is Journey to the River Sea. Here we see, orphan Maia, leave the girls boarding school in London to journey to the Amazon to meet her long lost relatives, the Carters.  When she arrives in the Amazon, it isn’t long before she finds herself caught up in some extraordinary adventures!

We will be writing a range of genres around the text linked to The Rainforests including;

  • A character description of Maia/Clovis
  • A diary entry from the viewpoint of Maia
  • A set of instructions
  • A description of the rainforest
  • An adventure narrative
Year 5

Where’s the detail in the picture?

26th November 2018R Smith

As part of their art project this term, Year 5 have been doing some sketching – they have done mirror image pictures to copy the other side. For this we chose to sketch Hitler as it tied in with our topic work. We have also sketched detailed portraits of ourselves and drawn some still life images


Year 5

Be Safe

21st November 2018R Smith
Class 10 and 11 had a visit from David Burn from Be Safe to talk to the children about bullying. They were shown what to do in the event they find themselves being bullied and told what behaviours to watch out for if they think one of their friends is being bullied. They also learned about the consequences of cyber bullying. Both the impact it can have on a victim and the punishments they could face from the police.

Year 4/5,Year 5

Why do we celebrate Remembrance Day?

19th November 2018R Smith

Year 5 have been investigating …Why do we celebrate Remembrance Day?

We have –

  • Found out why we have Remembrance day
  • Investigated what the Royal British Legion is and what they do as a charity
  • Found out why the poppy is used

 

We also did an assembly for the rest of the school –

On Friday 9th November, Year 5 held a Remembrance Day assembly to remember those who have died sacrificing their lives, and to those who have fought and gave their lives for the rest of us and our future. As a school we held a minutes silence to think about those who have fought and died to give us the freedom we enjoy today. Children from each class then came and laid a wreath at our cenotaph.


Year 5

Bikeability

10th October 2018R Smith

Bikeability is underpinned by the National Standard for cycle training; a government-recognised set of principles for better and safer cycling. Bikeability is an improved, updated and more relevant version of the old cycling proficiency scheme, delivered by professional instructors.

From 10-13th September, Year 5 took part in the level 2 Bikeability programme whereby instructors helped our children develop better, safer cycling habits. Well done to all those who took part.

Year 5

Year 5 Autumn Focus Text

14th September 2018R Smith

This term year 5 will be grabbing our suitcases and hopping aboard a steam train on a journey into Britain’s wartime past. Bombs? Rations? Gas masks? We will be the children who can say ‘I was there’. As we follow Betty on her journey of evacuation to safety; from her London home to the posh country mansion of formidable Lady Florence Musgrave.

We will be writing a range of genres around the text linked to WW2 including;

  • A character description of Betty
  • A leaflet about evacuation
  • A diary entry from the viewpoint of Betty
  • Letter home as an evacuee
  • A description of the blitz – during an air raid
  • Newspaper
