We have had a fabulous final week in Class 5.

In English we have been completing our very own Rainforest themed stories complete with magical trees and talking animals. The children spent time breaking the story down, chapter by chapter, paragraph by paragraph and really fine tuning their writing skills to create fantastically detailed and descriptive pieces of writing. It has been an absolute please reading them.

Maths this week has focussed on revising 3D shapes and their properties. We spent a lot of time making different nets for multiple 3D shapes and then completed a full unit review to consolidate learning. The children did amazingly well and showed that they have really understood the topic!

In our History lessons we looked at architecture and archaeologists. We learned what these words mean and then spent time looking at different Mayan building, using what we could see to try to work out what the buildings may have been used for. I was really impressed with the children’s archaeological skills!

Of course, we have also been practicing an awful lot of singing this week. In a couple of months, Class 5 will be invited to sing at the Huddersfield Town Hall as part of the Kirklees Primary Music Festival. We have a whole booklet of songs that we need to learn before then so we really sunk our teeth into practicing this week and my word, I was blown away with the musical talent in this class! I can’t wait to be sitting on stage with them whilst they perform on the big night!

I hope you all have a wonderful Easter break!
