Year 5 completed their school councillor election day.
All the candidates put in a big effort when delivering their speeches. The remaining children gave some great feedback and voted in Muna and Mahdiya. Well done everybody. The children in Year 5 loved taking part in the cricket workshop run by Middlesex County Cricket Club.
The children practiced their catching and fielding skills. They also worked as a team and realised the importance of effective communication when participating in competitive sport. Y5 were visiting Spitalfields City Farm to learn about about plants, which is part of our science topic of life cycles. We learnt about the different types of plants, how they reproduce and grow. In addition to flowering plants, we saw runner plants, tubers and plants with bulbs. We created our own recycled plant pots and planted some spinach to take home with us. As no farm visit would be complete without seeing the lovely animals, we also had a chance to see the resident sheep, goats, pigs and donkeys
'In Science, year 5 are learning about life cycles of plants. We were investigating what the different parts of a plant are called, which are part of the plant's reproduction cycle and what happens at each stage of this cycle. We also created our own glossaries to help us broaden our science vocabulary.
Year 5 have made a great start to Daily Mile challenge. They have built up slowly and gradually and are now ready to begin completing a full mile.
Well Done Year 5. Keep it up! 'To settle back into school, Year 5 worked on a team-building activity which required us to use design -, engineering and collaboration skills.
We’ve been busy making a science poster all about the ‘States of Matter’.
We’ve also been using Scratch to create audio to go along with our work. |
