  • Why is reading regularly important?

    Published 13/07/22

    In Year 5 this year, we have had so many opportunities to read wonderful and exciting books. This week, we have been continuing to read The Girl of Ink and Stars, and we have loved writing setting descriptions and creating wanted posters based on the text. Some of us have also achieved our Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze awards for reading! Such a fantastic achievement. 

    In Maths, we have been learning about metric units and in PSHE, we opened our Time Capsules to see how much we have grown since the start of the year! 

    We have also been super busy with end-of-term activities including Move Up Morning, Personal Bests Week and Sports Day. We feel so lucky to have had such a great year in Year 5... only three days left!

    This week the children created their Take One Picture collages using natural materials and paint. They have turned out so well! The children also painted their clay pots using space colours and glitter.

    In Literacy, we continued reading The Girl of Ink & Stars and wrote character descriptions and diary entries. In Maths, we have been learning about parallel and perpendicular lines as well as regular and irregular polygons. 

    In PSHE, we created vision boards, looking into our future and setting goals for ourselves.

    We are also super excited to know who our new teachers are. Blue Class will meet Mrs Wyman next week, Indigo Class will meet Mrs Harman and Mrs Glover and Sapphire Class will meet Mrs Thorn and Mrs Wilkins. What an exciting time of year this is!
