Year 5 Spring Term

During the Spring term we will be focusing on area, perimeter, types of number and fractions. Also, fine tuning our arithmetic and problem solving skills. In English, we will be writing our own biographies on a family member and enjoying reading and working on the Midnight Fox book by Betsy Byars. This will provide opportunities for drama, art and lots of writing.

In History, we will investigate the life of a Bronze Age and Iron Age child and how things changed over time. We are also looking forward to finding out about Forces and how they impact our lives.

We are fortunate enough to continue with our Flute lessons with Miss Fleming and study an amazing folk artist called Heather Galler.

At the end of the Spring Term, we are looking forward to a day spent in the local area using our map reading skills to follow a route. There may also be opportunity for some sketching and drawing.
