Year 5 - Autumn 2 - Week 4

Date: 23rd Nov 2023 @ 9:34pm

What another fantastic week we have had with December fast approaching!

In Maths, we have continued our grand, class times table battle with this current tournament approaching a very dramatic conclusion. With just two rounds left and one point between the two teams, we have a very tense wait to find our eventual winner in the coming weeks. Both teams have given their all…but there can only be ONE winning team. Good luck to all involved!

We have also been busy completing some Maths assessments to check our understanding of our learning throughout this term so far.

In our RE work, we continued our focus on the birth of Jesus as told in the gospels of Luke and Matthew. We analysed how these two versions of the nativity have some key differences and we compared each story using a double bubble thinking map. We then sorted a variety of pictures according to their appearance in each particular bible story.

Following a very successful Book World Cup competition last week, we have started reading our winning book: ‘Millions’ by Frank Cottrell-Boyce. There has already been plenty of laughter in the opening pages and we’re already very keen to read more.

Thank you, Year 5 for a brilliant week and enjoy the weekend!
