Mr Bentley
In Year 5 we exercise our Learning Powers each and everyday to become the very best versions of ourselves we can be. We work hard, knowing when it is possible to develop our independence and when we need to ask for help. We also follow in the footsteps of Jesus by supporting one another along our school journey together. On this class page, we will demonstate our work in action throughout the year and look forward to sharing with you what we achieve in school everyday.
Year 5 LTP outlines what we will cover this year in each subject
Early Childhood Memories
This week we have been reading Ronald Dahl's biography 'Boy' and in preparation for writing their own, the children have been thinking about some their early childhood memories. Below are a selection of some of them.
Dear Zoo - in so many languages!
Year 5 have been inspired by the book 'Dear Zoo' for their task this year. They each created a book page for their chosen language and translated the repeated text into a whole host of European languages. They also added animation to reveal their chosen animal on each page. Can you work out the languages they have researched?
Christian Conversion of Anglo-Saxon Britain
Year 5 have recently completed a unit of work all about the Anglo-Saxons and one of their tasks was to collaborate together to create a booklet outling the Christian Conversion that took place around AD550-650. They posed for freeze frames and then presented their work in a booklet using Book Creator on the iPad. Click on the pdf to open this in a new tab.
Y5 Have a Dream...
As part of our work during Black History Week, we investigated key American figures who have contributed significantly to improving society. We looked at individuals in Barack Obama's book of Thee I Sing and chose who we wanted to reserach further. Unsurprisingly Martin Luther Kin Jr was one of them. Y5 decided to write their own modern day versions relating to issues they would like to see challenged. We recorded them and put them together in the following video.
