Summer Term

During our Summer term in Year 5 we study lots of exciting topics. Our Power of Reading texts are Tom's Midnight Garden and There's a boy in the girls' bathroom.  We spend lots of time improving our Maths fluency and reasoning skills. In Science we explore the 'The Circle of Life' before moving on to 'Growing up and Growing Old'! We continue our Geography learning by answering the question of ‘Would you like to live in the desert?’ and our History explores the Maya Civilisation. We continue our Spanish learning on 'My home' and our RE learning on 'Leaders in religious communities. Our Art looks at the work of Monet. Our PSHE looks First Aid and changes as we get older. Our programming skills will be put to the test this term in our Computing topics of 'Selection in physical computing’ and ‘Selection in quizzes’. Finally, we make sure to keep our bodies moving by looking Athletics and Cricket!
