Year 5 News

Another week has flown by in Year 5.  

 

This week in maths, we finished our unit of work on multiplication and division and have moved on to fractions.  We have been looking at equivalent fractions to unit fractions and how to find an equivalent fraction.  In English, we finished our newspaper reports about the moon landing and the wonderful work completed by the human computers during that time.  In Science, we conducted a fantastic experiment all about what makes the best paper helicopter, exploring the relationship between surface area and air resistance.  

 

Year 5 had a little treat this morning and got to watch Holes - the film versions of our focus treading text from last half term.  They really enjoyed the film and it was so lovely to hear them celebrate it at the end.  

 

Next week is test week so there will be no spellings to learn.  They will be tested on the Year 3/4 words and the Year 5/6 words.  

 

Have a lovely weekend!
