It has been another fantastic couple of weeks in Year 5. We have been learning all about Cleopatra and Tutankhamun in history and have produced some excellent acrostic poems about Cleopatra.
In English, we have been writing our own stories all about our dreams and aspirations. Miss D’Amone and Mrs. Golden were very impressed by the quality of the stories that the children have written.
We have finished our class novel, Danny the champion of the World and are looking forward to starting our next, Holes by Louis Sachar. We have asked the children not to watch the film before we read the book and we will watch it as a celebration in school after we have enjoyed the book.
In maths, we have been looking at factors, multiples, prime numbers, square numbers AND cube numbers!! We have produced some excellent visual maps in art too.
We have had a fantastic time with the Bikeability team and have developed so much confidence on our bikes and have developed a really advanced awareness of roads and road safety.
The children have been nothing short of an utter delight to teach and Miss D’Amone and Mrs. Golden feel very lucky to be their teachers for this year. Each child is a credit to you and we can’t wait for the second half of the autumn term.
Have a wonderful break and we will see you in November!
