English
We are continuing our work on ‘Kensuke’s Kingdom’. This week the children wrote poems about storms. They had some great ideas for description. Today they role played a conversation from the story between the two main characters. Next week they will be working on play scripts.
Maths
We have done lots of work on fractions recently including adding and subtracting fractions and conversion of fractions. This week we revised factors and multiples.
Science
The children completed their river rangers work last week with the Shropshire Wildlife Trust. They learnt about sustainable urban drainage systems and have begun to think about the plants we need in our own school pond. The children looked at insects in the wildlife area this week and drew some detailed illustrations of the creatures they found.
Swimming
Just to let year 5 parents know, we are doing life saving skills next week in swimming so the children need a T-shirt as well as their usual swimming kit please.
