Year 5
Weekly Update
Friday 24th June 2022
Dear Year 5 Parents and Carers
The children have blown us away this week with their clay dragon eye creations – they look superb and the detail and variations between them is amazing!
Our learning next week:
In maths we will be finishing our learning on volume and capacity and solving word problems around these.
In English, we will continue to use our class text ‘Greek Myths’ by Anne Turnbull to begin our myth-writing journey.
In foundation, we will be looking at what skills and qualities are needed for different jobs and careers, we will research Greek recipes for DT and in history compare the differences between Athens and Sparta during ancient Greek times.

Please continue to use year5@eastwick.thpt.org.uk to contact the staff with any queries or comments.
Notices:
On Wednesday 29th June is move-up morning where the children will meet their new teachers. Please can they still come to school in their P.E. kits as we will be doing some P.E. in the afternoon.
Kindest regards,
Miss Smith, Mrs Read, Mrs Khan and all the Year 5 team
