Year 5

Weekly Update

Friday 27th January 2023

Dear Year 5 Parents and Carers

We are very proud of all the children and the contribution they made to the Bugsy Malone show this week – it was great fun to be part of a live performance and their singing really added to the show.

Our learning next week:

In maths, we will continue working on our topic of fractions which will continue with addition and move onto subtraction.

In English, the children will be writing and publishing their own Dragonology style non-chronological reports.

In foundation, we will continue to learn about first aid in PSHE, complete the pop-up books in DT, research more about the Viking period in history and complete an experiment on forces in science.

Spelling:

Next week the children will be selecting words from the Year 5/6 spelling list that they know they might struggle with and therefore need to practice more.

Notices:

On the Year 5 curriculum map, which can be found on the Eastwick website, we intended to have a visit from the fire brigade this term in line with our PSHE topic on emergencies. Sadly, the fire brigade are not able to facilitate the visit at this time, but we hope to arrange this later in the year.

Kindest regards,

Miss Smith, Mrs Khan, Mrs Stephens and Mr Lowe and all the Year 5 team
