Year 5 Round Up Autumn 2 Week 4
1 Dec

5E had a great time at Rubery Library this Friday morning. Vanessa was a fantastic host and made discovering the library so much fun! The staff and patrons were very impressed with all the children - the teachers were so proud and made sure the children were told about the compliments they received for their impeccable manners. It's always such a joy to watch the children become excited by books (including the chatter when they found ones they recognised from lessons, or their own book corner)!

What a fantastic first week back! To launch us right back into learning, we took the children into battle! They were excellent Roman soldiers, utilising their self-made shields to defend themselves and the rest of their legion.

Year 5 Autumn Week 4
29 Sep

We've completed 4 weeks of learning and the children have been blowing us away! Their understanding of place value of numbers up to 1 million was great, as a result they could round the numbers to a variety of different places and explain their understanding. The pupils have no moved onto addition with renaming before they move onto subtraction. In English and Reading, we've found, discussed and practised a variety of ways to create the mood and imagery for the reader.

The Year 5 pupils are excited to get going on their history unit which centres around the Roman invasion of Britain.
