Well done to this amazing boy who has made phenomenal progress in all his recent assessments. This is down to his fantastic effort, enthusiasm and concentration in class! π« π
Library visit π
As part of World Book Day, year 5 visited the library and had the opportunity to read for pleasure. They also learnt how to sign some science related words in Makaton. A few lucky children even won a book to take home π
PSHE π
Last week we looked at the effects of smoking and children were divided into groups and asked to research how smoking effects different parts of the body. Some children chose to present their work as a poster, drama, cartoon or poem. These children decided to write song lyrics!
Police visit in year 5 π
The police came into year 5 to talk to the class about online safety this week. It was clear that children are aware of the dangerous that they can face online and it was great to hear that children know how they should behave when using social media.

I have noticed such a change in this boyβs attitude and focus in lessons. He is now showing he can persevere, even when faced with difficult work to complete. This is a fantastic quality to have and I hope itβs here to stay!
π Attendance Winners π
Year 5 smashed attendance last week! 100% = 10 minutes extra break!
Last week we started our βCircle of Lifeβ science topic. We discussed the reproduction in plants and children had the opportunity to label the male and female parts of a daffodil.
In science this week, year 5 have been investigating friction. We used Newton meters and friction boards to test out our prediction that rough surfaces cause more friction.

Last week, I shared this girlβs writing at a local moderation meeting and her work blew everyone away. She is making amazing progress in her written work. I canβt wait to see what itβs like at the end of the year! π«
