Welcome to our Year Five page.
Welcome back and we hope you've had a lovely half term break.
We have lots to look forward to this half term!
Half Term Two.
This half term our Big Question is, 'Can you feel the force?'
In English we will be writing diaries, ‘The Man Who Walked Between the Towers’. We will write an explanation about forces.
In maths we will be working on negative numbers and fractions.
Our science lessons will develop our understanding of forces by completing practical scientific enquiries. We will think about how forces act in the world around us.
In computing we will coding.
In art we will be studying the artist Keith Haring. We will develop our drawing skills when creating images of moving people.
During our PSHCE lessons we will learn about how to 'Keep Myself Safe'. We will look at risk taking behaviours, understand how to make safe choices on and off line and learn about the negative influences of vaping, smoking, drugs and alcohol.
