Which substances are soluble in water?

The children tested a variety of powdered substances to see if they would dissolve in water. This is a great experiment to try at home. Simply mix water and powders from your kitchen cupboards (e.g. salt/pepper/flour) and see if the substance appears to disappear into the water without leaving lumps. It should still be a liquid to be soluble.

 

Autumn Nature Walk

This morning the Y5s have been out and about observing nature closely. We have walked along the hedgerow habitat, collected minibeasts and are now beginning to identify the leaves which we have collected. The children are using keys alongside their close observation to make educated guesses as to what they have found.

From notes to chords

Today in Music, the children learnt about the 12 bar blues which is a pattern of chords. A chord is made up of two or more notes played at the same time. Triads are chords made up of three notes. The children simultaneously played the notes C, E and G to create a C chord and practised playing to different tempos.

 

If you are at home, why don’t you have a look for famous songs which use the 12 bar blues?

Congratulations 5BH

Well done to Miss Harrison’s class for being the first Y5 class to win the SMART Cup this year!

Nature Walk is still going ahead

Dear Parents/Carers,

 

Having checked with the current advice, we will still be able to go on our Nature Walk on Friday which is fantastic news. Please see the previous post to ensure that your child comes into school with the appropriate kit.

 

Kind regards,

 

Mr Banfield

Reading at home

For those isolating at home, whilst your child will have access to Bug Club and Fiction Express, they could also be reading our class text. Attached is a copy of the book and some VIPERS style questions to work through at home. In school, we will aim to be up to chapter 20 by the end of this week.

French Storytelling

Year 5 travelled to Red Hill Primary this afternoon to take part in a French storytelling masterclass! They used their growing vocabulary to learn and perform Little a Red Riding Hood and Jack and the Beanstalk en français!

Très bon!

Bollywood Dance

Today, the children learned about keeping count on a dance. They then applied this skill to a new genre of dance. They had the freedom to develop a performance around 3 key Bollywood dance moves and poses.
