Year 5

In English, the children have been studying the life of Colonel Chris Hadfield and have produced some fantastic biographies for their final project. Their lessons involved becoming biography detectives where they were exploring the features of biographies as well as lessons involving role play and becoming Chris Hadfield for a question-and-answer session.

In maths, we have been looking at short multiplication and short division. The children have been enjoying this unit of maths.

In Science, we have been exploring Space. Discussions have included whether we think the Earth is flat or round and completing experiments to help with this thinking, as well as learning about the other planets in our solar system.

We have been dancing in PE this term, looking at different dances from around the world. We are building up to something that we are all excited about!

In DT we have been making CAMS models that involve a space theme. The children have used their measuring skills, working out how big their frame needs to be as well as how long to cut their dowel.
