Hello everyone!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our class have had a ball continuing with our science experiments. I can almost smell the bread we will make in the coming weeks! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is what we have been up to this week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maths<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Year 5<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multiplication and Division<\/strong> and Fractions B<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>

Literacy\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This week in Literacy, we continued our work on The Selfish Giant by Oscar Wilde. The children explored the story from the Giant\u2019s point of view and focused on understanding his thoughts and feelings when he returned to his garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We looked at how writers use first-person voice, powerful verbs, and descriptive language to show emotion. Through discussion and role play, the children stepped into the Giant\u2019s shoes and thought carefully about how he might react to what he sees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The children then planned and began writing a monologue from the Giant\u2019s perspective, using short dramatic sentences and vivid vocabulary to bring his voice to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IPC<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This week in IPC, the children continued our Bake It<\/em> unit by carrying out a series of practical science investigations. They investigated what happens when different ingredients are mixed together and how changing conditions can affect the outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The children explored dissolving by testing a range of solids in water and observing which materials dissolved well and which did not dissolve well. They compared mixtures made with warm and cold water and discussed why temperature made a difference. Through these experiments, the children learned that some solids, such as sugar, can dissolve in water, while others cannot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the investigations, the children changed one variable at a time and recorded their observations carefully. They were introduced to and began using key scientific vocabulary, including solute, solvent, solution, dissolve,<\/em> and temperature<\/em>, to explain what they observed. The children also discussed why ingredients did not disappear when they dissolved and what was happening at a particle level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Useful Information<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
