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 lot of fun acting out the battles and finding out about the creation of the Tudor Rose!

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

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

In English, we wrote biographies about Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, portal stories based on our trip to Hampton Court Palace and reverse poems for Diversity Week.

In DT, we used CAM mechanisms to make our own Tudor toys with a moving part.

In French, we learnt all about feelings and emotions.

In PSHE, we made posters about diversity and learnt all about laws and rules. 

In RE, we learnt about the Creation story and the importance of looking after the world.

We had a fantastic half term and enjoyed a trip to Hampton Court Palace to bring our learning to life! Have a look at our brilliant learning!
