9-10 year olds

This term, Year 5 and 6 have been learning all there is to know about the swinging sixties. In literacy, we have been researching and writing biographies about famous figures from the 1960’s including: Nelson Mandela, John Lennon, Audrey Hepburn, Muhammad Ali and Whitney Houston. This engaging writing topic has allowed us to further develop our application of grammatical and technical concepts such as, relative clauses, complex sentences and semi-colons to join clauses.
In maths, we have been extending our understanding of the relationship between fractions, decimals and percentages. We have been learning to convert between them, find fractions and percentages of amounts and then use our knowledge to reason and problem solve. We have also been investigating linear sequences in algebra and using formulae to find the nth term.
We have been thoroughly enjoying our PE sessions where we have been learning how to play table tennis with a visiting coach. We have learnt different skills including: holding the bat correctly, practising our serve and volleying.
