Year 5 Gallery of Learning

Welcome to Year 5!

Please have a look at what we have been doing this year.

Autumn 1 - Off With Her Head!

Our Learning!

We had a lot of fun launching our Tudor topic on the first day back! We learnt all about the Tudor family and the War of the Roses.

We had a carousel of activities to enjoy to learn about life as a Tudor. We played chess, wrote our names using Tudor style handwriting and thought very hard when solving riddles!

Have a look at all our fun activities!

We learnt so much this half-term!

In DT, we used CAM mechanisms do make Tudor toys. It was sometimes challenging to make the mechanism work, but we overcame these challenges and completed our projects brilliantly!

In French, we learnt how to share how we feel. We played many games to remember our vocabulary, so much fun!

In English, we wrote a biography of Henry VIII, a Tudor setting description and an adventure story based on our trip to Hampton Court Palace.

We learnt all about the story of creation in Christianity during our RE lessons and Mrs Curtis visited us on the last week to share her beliefs about creation with us!

We learnt how we change throughout our lives in Science and how to take care of our community in PSHE.

In History, we learnt all about the Tudors and what life was like at the time.

We had an amazing half-term and have learnt so much!

Project Homework.

We had so many amazing Projects made this half-term!

From fact files to Tudor style houses, we even had the script of a reality show about Henry VIII and his wives! We answered quizzes about the Tudors and calculated how much it would cost us to dine out as a Tudor!

Thank you for your support with your child's project!

Take On Picture

This half-term, we completed the Take One Picture project. We based our project on 'A Regatta on the Grand Canal' from Canaletto.

Trip to Hampton Court Palace

On Friday 26th September, we went to Hampton Court Palace. We used our knowledge from school whilst we were discovering rooms and artefacts. We had a great time learning more and asking great questions to the amazing staff we met there! The gardens were enchanting and we have a lot of fun in the maze! Here are some pictures from our fantastic trip!
