Year 5/6 B
Welcome to our class page. We will post regular updates to let you know what we have been doing in school.
A few things to remember:
PE is usually Wednesday and Thursday (Tuesday too if you do an extra slot with Mr Bakes) It would be a good idea to have your kit in school every day as things can change!
Times tables - Wednesday
Spellings - Thursday
Homework is handed out on a Friday and is to be completed by the following Wednesday.
Friday 10th March
In our science learning today we were looking at irreversible changes. This is when 2 materials are combined and a new material is made. There is a reaction and a gas is produced. You cannot separate the materials to get the originals back. We added Mentos to diet coke and watched the reaction.
World Book Day
Work of the Week Friday 3rd February - Will Jennings for his fantastic summary of The Lighthouse.
As promised, we have added some photos from our amazing day at Kidzania.
Some of our favourite comments about the day are:
"It was amazing as we were so independent!"
"I loved the fact that the teachers weren't allowed around with us!"
"It was like the real world, where you have to get a job!"
We listened really carefully to Larry.
"But Helena I really do love you!" cried Demetrius.
Work of the Week Friday 13th January
In our recent science work we looked at gravity. We investigated meteorites falling to planets by creating our own planets.

Christmas Jumper Day Thursday 15th December
Work of the Week - Friday 9th December
Tyler Rowan for excellent geography work on Canada.
Thursday 8th December
This term the majority of our mathematics work has been based on fractions. We have learnt:
- How to add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions.
- How to find a fraction of an amount.
- How to find equivalent fractions.
- How to simplify fractions.
- How to convert between proper fraction and mixed numbers.
It has been a challenging term with a lot of new concepts to learn. The children have done amazingly well with this and myself and Mrs Turner are very proud of their achievements.
For our recent Golden Time we made spaghetti and marsmallow towers. The aim was to make the tallest tower. We then ate marshmallows and melted chocolate!
Lilia and her excellent maths work on fractions. Work of the Week 2nd December.
