Spring Term 2024:
We have been working very hard in year 5 and we are proud of our learning. Here are a few things that we have been doing:
We have begun our new topic on The Kingdom of Benin. So far we have looked at how historians have managed to use artefacts, the remains of buildings and descriptions from travellers to piece together evidence of a civilisation where very little was written down! We have enjoyed looking at artefacts and trying to work out what they were used for. We even had a very entertaining game of Call my Bluff!
In Computing we are learning about Internet Safety. We have learned how to deal with SPAM, how to protect our personal information and how to choose powerful passwords.
In French we are now ‘Au Salon de The’ (at the tearoom) where we are learning how to order various items in French. Un cafe et un croissant s’il vous plait!
In Music with Mr Nield we have been exploring dynamic and texture and how this affects our singing and playing.
