Year 5 Home Practice 23rd October 2020

Date: 23rd Oct 2020 @ 3:55pm

Year 5 have had a great start to the new school year. The children have worked so hard and shown interest and enthusiasm for all their learning. We have finished our first novel, Street Child by Berlie Doherty and learnt so much about Victorian Times. In maths, we worked on written methods of addition. The children learnt about Halloween traditions in France and wrote some excellent sentences in the future tense. The costumes were great for Halloween Day, thank you for your kind donations. Have a wonderful holiday and stay safe.
