Hello and welcome to our class

We are a mixed year 5 and 6 class

Autumn Term 2019
English: We will continue to use the 'Talk for Writing' process this term to help pupils develop their writing skills. Most of our work will be based on our class novel, 'The London Eye Mystery' and will include using our reading journals, story writing, setting and character descriptions, poetry, explanations and persuasive writing. 
Maths: Reasoning & problem solving using number, shape, space and measures will be ongoing throughout the year. 
Geography: Using maps & atlases; North America
Science:  Electricity; Earth in space
Computing: E-safety; using search technologies effectively, select & use a variety of software and evaluating digital content.
R.E. our key question is 'Why do some people believe in God?'
Music: Exploring rounds and learning about sound sources, as well as working towards our Christmas concert later in the term.
