If you have any old shirts that need a new home, could you please send them into school with your child. We will be using them for art lessons therefore larger/adult shirts are best.

Thank you in advance 🙂

This week in Year 5 we have been fine tuning our work on legends in our work on traditional stories and legends for literacy , focusing on using more complex sentences. In  science we have been learning about phases of the Moon and how they arise   and for geography we have been using atlases to locate main cities and settlements in The British Isles. In Art, we practised arranging shapes and colours as a prelude to our still life compositions .

 

 

Today (Friday) was our Fitness day.  Everyone had a  great  time and I’m sure the children will sleep well tonight after all their exertions.

School Council Elections

Finally Congratulations to Nelleke and Joseph on their election to the post of Year 5 School Council representatives.  I’m sure they will do an excellent job.

 

Have a great week,

 

Mr Creaton

Please find attached this week’s home learning tasks.

The children have their grammar activity already pasted into their books but I have attached a copy here for reference.

Agreement Between Nouns, Pronouns and Nouns

This week’s reading comprehension is all about what the Aztecs ate at mealtimes.  Please note,  children will need to write complete sentence answers to sections A and B in their books.

I have decided to make section C optional this week.

Reading Comprehension Y5 – Task 3

 

For mathematics, Mr Bedford and I have set our respective groups their homework on my maths.  My group were given reminders of their login details earlier this week.

Have a nice weekend,

 

 

Maths, computing and science boffins in action! And the first appearance of the birthday glasses 🙂

 

Another lovely week has gone by at St Adrian’s topped by the Mercy Mass and a picnic in the gorgeous sunshine.

Earlier this week, in English,  we have been thinking about how King Arthur felt when he first met the loathly lady.  The children did a freeze-frame in order to really empathise with the characters.

      

 

We have also been looking at Roman numerals in maths.  We all enjoyed a bit of Roman Numeral Bingo although catch phrases such as ‘sweet XVI’  and           ‘ Key of the door – XXI’   probably won’t catch on as well as their Arabic numeral counterparts.

 

Hope you all have an enjoyable weekend,

Mr Creaton
