Class 5

22-05-17

Class five have had a busy week and managed to fit in lots. They have learnt about translating shapes and done some brilliant poetry work on the senses. Here is a snippet from Daniel's brilliant poem:

 Such a sight I saw:

An awesome aeroplane disappearing into the clouds,

Making holes in the bright clouds,

It amazes me like a shooting star,

Such a sight I saw.

Happy half-term from Class 5!

Class Five have finished Shackleton's Journey in English and thoroughly enjoyed re-enacting parts and writing powerful quotes to end the story.

They have learnt about shape in maths and been recounting their time at Goodwood.

Have a restful weekend Class 5!

Goodwood Day 3!

we have had a brilliant time at Dell Quay today. We learnt a lot about tides and sea defences and the wildlife on the coast.

out favourite part was going crabbing- we loved it!! 

Then, when we were fifteen minutes from home, we broke down and Miss Howells had to call the police to escort us off the coach. It was a very exciting end to our trip!

Goodwood Day 2

Today has been another busy day and we have been excellent. We saw lovely animals at the farm and even patted a calf!! The cathedral was great and miss Howells was so proud of us all! 

We are having an early night tonight! 

Day 1

In the words of the children "this is the best trip ever. Pond dipping was so fun and the food is great"

Goodwood Day 1

In the words of the children "this has been the best trip ever so far. It's been boiling hot but we've still had lots of fun. Pond dipping was amazing"

The children have had a great day and been amazing! Looking forward to day two!

Well done.

Class 5 have had another great week and completed some brilliant Remembrance work. Please see the poem below which was written by one of the class!

Lest We Forget

Lest we forget the gallant and brave,

Lest we forget the peace that they made.

They will not grow old but stay fresh in our minds,

we hope they are safe beyond the skies.

All the bullets and guns whistle by,

we do not realise until you say goodbye.

So we would like you to wear a poppy today,

and celebrate them,  hip hip hooray.

Class 5 have had a great week learning all about Mexico.

They have completed oral presentations comparing physical and human characteristics of Mexico to other countries, created non-chronological reports, learnt about the 'Day of The Dead' and even done some Mexican weaving!

Well done Class 5 :-) 

Class 5 have had another brilliant week of learning and really enjoyed making scaled models of the solar system with fruit and toilet paper this afternoon.

Well done Class 5. Have a lovely weekend!

Year 5 have had a great week this week and worked really hard. Roald Dahl day was a highlight with some brilliant costumes and brilliant learning throughout the day.
