  • Anglo Saxons in Year 5

    Published 14/10/23, by Andy Mari

    Year 5 participated in a fantastic Anglo-Saxon workshop, where they learnt all about the 7 Kingdoms, ancient artefacts, played traditional games (Merels) and completed a quiz. They also got to compete with the opposite class by challenging them to spear wrestling. Overall, they had a brilliant day and consolidated their learning. In maths, Year 5 have been adding and subtracting using a range of methods. These included number lines and column method. In English, they wrote their own persuasive speech.

    Well done Year 5!

    Year 5 have had a fantastic few weeks. In Science, they continued to explore forces and carried out multiple investigations to discover whether the mass or size of an object impacts how quickly it falls. Ask your child, “What is the name of the force that made the paper fall to the floor?”

    In maths, they have been using their place value knowledge to help them round numbers. Ask your child, “What are the rules for rounding?”

    In English, Year 5 finished their first narrative unit called ‘Cosmic’ and wrote their own action-packed endings. Ask your child, "What vehicle did your car turn into and what exciting things happened?"

    Well done, Year 5!
