Here you will find all about recent activity in Year 5
This week, the children completed their D&T project; their finished pop-up books are incredible! They also published their brilliant narratives based on our class novel Floodland. We wish you all a happy and safe holiday.
The children have been continuing to work on their D&T project 'Pop up mechanism in books!' They have been really busy bringing their designs to life and can't wait to show everyone their finished products.
Year 5 had a wonderful time visiting North Cheam Baptist Church this week, where they were involved in The Easter Experience. The children definitely demonstrated The Dorchester Values on this outing, as the children were all beautifully behaved and respectful. They showed their enquiry skills through the very thoughtful questions they asked after the re-enactment of the story. We were very proud of the children.
This week's highlight has to be learning about water resistance! Lots went wrong but we also learnt lots about water resistance and streamlined shapes! What would you do differently next time?
