This week in class we have been asking....

Who was Scrooge and how does Charles Dickens portray this character so effectively?  Can we multiply up to 4 digit by 2 digit?  Does Sita fulfil her Dharma?  How does energy transfer around a circuit?

Our ‘Flashback 4’ questions were….

1.Today: What is the syllable pattern of a Haiku?

2.This/last week: Can we name different types of chemical energy stores?

3.This term: Why do we have different diets?

4.Last term: Who were the Mayans?

After Christmas we will be asking.... What was Roman Britain like?  How do Buddhists explain suffering in the world?  How do life cycles work? Can we understand and use formal methods for division?  Can we connect crumbles in IT?

In the New Year, Year 5 will start to have their PE sessions on a Monday and Thursday. The Thursday session will be with the Active Communities Team, under the East Riding Council. While the students are taking part in their sessions, they have asked for permission to take photos and videos of the children so they can use them in future reports and presentations. There is a ‘consent’ item on the Arbor app. If you could kindly accept or decline. Thank you.

 

Our spelling rule next week will be the sound 'ow' and will include the words: aloud allowed, encounter, plough, foundation, bough, drought, outcome, shout, shouting, uncrowded.

Our Graduate Award that we are working towards is: DT (Cooking and nutrition) Year 5 Graduate Awards - Keyingham Primary

REMEMBER: PE is every Monday and Thursday (not Friday).
