Nearly Half Term!

This week in Year 5 we have done so many exciting things like writing about ‘The Piano’ and 5SF made clay pots inspired by Kate Malone. We also did fun things in P.E like yoga, netball and football. We did missing number problems in maths. We learnt some very interesting facts in geography, PSHE and history. 

An Arty, Maths-Filled Week

On Monday morning, Year Five were completing tests to show what we know. We completed a spelling test, a maths reasoning paper and a grammar and punctuation paper.

Some classes were making coil pots and needed to bring in an inspirational object to make them. The artist that inspired us to make the pots is Kate Malone.

We also did some fun maths about adding prices and working out the price of a families holiday as well as adding up prices for customers at TGI Friday’s. We were also learning about voice overs and different sentence types so we watched a no-speaking piano piece. Different classes were doing different P.E lessons such as rugby, netball and football.

Hotseating

Busy exploring the thoughts and emotions of the main character in The Piano.  The questions have been crafted into a fingerprint to create a beautiful piece of work before being used to interrogate various members of the class.

Our Visit from the West End

On Thursday 3rd October 2019, a visitor from the West End came and taught us about acting. We had fun performing scenes from the Shakespeare play Twelfth Night. 

Dianna from West End in Schools came to visit us and we practised scenes from the play to perform for the other Year Five classes and the teachers. 

It was fun but nerve wracking when we performed it to the rest of Year Five. 5MH performed freeze frames, 5AC performed Malvolio being bullied by Feste, 5SF performed Malvolio prancing in yellow tights with cross gartered laces and 5EV performed the big duel between Sir Andrew and Cesario (Viola).

We had tons of fun learning about acting and performing for our friends!
