Year 5 | Spring 1 |
Learning Journey and Science Happy New Year! To start the Spring Term, we will be looking how the Anglo-Saxons lived. This will include at where the Anglo-Saxon period fits in with modern history. As geographers, we will be looking at which push and pull factors contributed to this. In Science we will start our topic of Earth and Space, including thinking about the Earth’s movement around the sun and why we experience day and night. | |
Maths This half term in maths we be focusing on decimals and percentages and perimeter and area. We will also be revisiting prior learning in all areas of maths to ensure the children keep using what they have learnt as well as doing regular arithmetic tests. All children need to know their times tables and should be practising them at home. Children should also be carrying out maths tasks on Mirodo to consolidate their learning in school as soon as we send the laptops home. | English We will be writing a narrative this half term based on Beowulf. Children will learn about the historical epic poem and write their own version. We will end the term by performing drama using Shakespeare’s ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’. In book study, we are starting Anglo Saxon Boy by Tony Bradman.
