Year 5 have worked incredibly hard this week with our English, Maths and Science optional SATs. Well done to the whole class for their hard working and mature attitude they have shown this week whilst doing the SATs. As they have worked so hard they do not have homework this weekend!!
We have also finished our oil pastel portraits inspired by the work of Picasso and used plasticine to make models of them. We made a colourful background to go with the models. They are great and photos will follow soon.
Next week we are back to normal (well sort of!). On Tuesday afernoon we are watching a performance at Ashton Park called 'My Future, My Choice'. The children have bought home permission slips tonight, please complete them and return them on Monday.
Have a good weekend!

Another busy week!!
Year 5 have been busy busy busy again this week!!!
In literacy we have started studying Street Child. We've done lots of drama, writing and reading and will be using the book in our literacy lessons for the next 3 weeks. In Numeracy we have been measuring angles using a protractor (which was not easy!!!).
Our Big Band lesson went really really well on Monday and everyone managed to get a sound out of their instrument.
On Friday we went to Ashton Park to take part in the Academic Challenge. We learnt about World War Two which included going into an Air Raid Shelter. Also we wrote one breath poems, did some art work and P.E. Everyone had a great time!
Next week we will be just as busy!!

Apologies for the lack of blog last week.
Year 5 had a great sports week and enjoyed all the activities they took part in. The quizzes they made up were very good with some really tricky questions!!!
The Brain Gym session was really good and we tried lots of the activities in class. Year 5 were excellent Country dancers! And we did the double by winning WOW and the Golden Lunch Box!
This week we have been writing from the perspective of someone else which we did really well. In numeracy we were learning about reflection, symmetry and translation, some of the work was very difficult.
Our music lessons started this week and will contiue for the rest of this term.
Year 5 were excellent in Sports Day and everyone enjoyed themselves. Hannah, Fraser, Aaron and Jasmin went on Gifted and Talented sport days on Thursday and Friday and we look forward to hearing all about it.
