Well I must say I am really sad to see this half term come to an end. It has been a fantastic 6 weeks full of lots of fun and lots of learning. I am so proud of my brilliant Year 5's for their hard work, resilience and maturity that that they have shown throughout the entire half term, I hope to see it continue after the break. A huge well done to each and every student. I hope you all have a great half term break.

This week in maths we have been learning about rounding decimals to the nearest place. We have also been learning about percentages of a number. We also learned how to convert between a percentage and a decimal and a percentage and a fraction. Did you know that percentage just means ‘out of 100’?
In English we have been learning how to write a formal letter of complaint about the deforestation in the Amazon rainforest. After 3 planning lessons we managed to have the level of ideas to start writing. Everyone has now finished their letters and written them up in best. Miss Eastwood has been marking them and said that they are the best pieces of written work be have completed all year!
In art we have been learning about Henri Rousseau and the brilliant paintings of his. His paintings were based on rainforests. He’d never actually seen a rainforest so he used his imagination and pictures he had seen in story books for these wonderful paintings.
This week in PE we have continued to practise and rehearse Our dance, adding new parts to our dance routine. In rugby we played minigames of rugby which was very fun. So that was class 5’s week on PE.
In music we have been continuing with our brass playing. We have been playing a song called I wanna play in a band. We have also been playing we will rock you.
We went to assembly and watched a
Violin performance of Miss Kelly’s friend!
She played some songs from musicals like the sound of music etc. on her violin. She was very talented.
In R.E. we got to draw a word in fancy writing on how we should live our lives Then we got to draw patterns inside the word. Some people chose the word family as they look after you.
Finally, after recent the earthquake in Turkey
