We have had a wonderful week here in Class 5!

We started the week in English by completed our persuasive brochures to convince people to visit the rainforest for their next summer holiday. The children really impressed me with their ambitious vocabulary and persuasive features! We then moved on to our next topic, poetry inspired by music. We listened to The Carnival of the Animals and tried to match up each piece of music to the animal it was referencing. It was such fun!

We have been learning all about measuring area and perimeter in maths which has been quite challenging but definitely rewarding as the children have made so much progress just in the last 5 days! Well done, Class 5!

Our topic lessons have all been science based this week, looking at the life cycles of many different living things from frogs and butterflies to humans and birds. We ended our topic lessons by choosing two different living things and comparing how their life cycles were similar and different.

Of course, we have been continuing to learn our dance in one of our PE slots and in the other we worked on hand-eye co-ordination by dribbling and bouncing basket balls with different targets. We worked independently and as a team to try and score as many points as possible in the different games. It was really fun and REALLY tiring!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
