To share our pleasure for reading, I have created an online reading corner for the class to share what they are currently enjoying at home. This space is just for Class 5, who can share or recommend any piece of writing that they have enjoyed or are currently enjoying. Pupils will then be able to like and comment on the posts, and may be inspired to add it to their reading list!
Please follow the QR code to access the page, signing up is optional (but free). Happy Reading!
First full week complete, and what a great one it has been! In English, we have started getting stuck into our new class novel, 'Viking Boy'. We created some brilliant inferences and predictions about what the novel may be about, and enjoyed linking our knowledge of the Vikings in History to our characters. As we are currently focussing on poetry, we wrote some excellent kennings describing the vicious Wolf Men.
To celebrate Roald Dahl Day tomorrow, we had a lovely Friday afternoon watching the BBC adaptation of Revolting Rhymes and can't wait to write our own on Monday. To finish off the week, we all drew our very own Enormous Crocodile in the style of Quentin Blake - they look great!
Well, what a fantastic start to the year we have had in Class 5! In amongst catching up with friends, sharing our news and getting used to the classroom, we have brought a brilliant attitude to our learning. We have wowed Miss Parker with our knowledge of Roman Numerals, created some brilliant stories and even carried out a Science investigation where we created some excellent scatter graphs to find a relationship between the size of hands and number of sweets they can grab. We've hit the ground running and there is no stopping us!
