Quick reminders for next week:
- PE kits to be worn Monday (PE lesson) and Tuesday (Sports Day).
- Homework set on Sumdog and English work is stuck in homework book.
- If hot weather forecast – please don’t forget water bottles, hats and suncream. If your child suffers from hayfever and needs medication, please administer before school.
As we battled with hayfever and rain during this week, we completed our Little Freak unit by writing an emotive monologue from the viewpoint of Little Freak. The children’s writing contained some really wonderful emotive language which really got to the heart of how this character was feeling. The children voiced how much they enjoyed this unit.
Maths saw us recalling previous fraction knowledge and applying this to problem solving. In RE, the children created pictorial representation of the different names of the Holy Spirit.
Our main focus this week was our country study in Geography and DT with making our Indian dishes. We returned to our design sheets from last week and reminded ourselves of the ingredient choices of our samosas and mango chat. On Wednesday afternoon, we made our dishes in the unity building and on Thursday morning we tasted and evaluated both dishes. It was amazing to see how many children actual liked chickpeas when surrounded by fruit!
Have a lovely weekend,
The Year 5 Team
