English
Our study this half term will focus on the traditional writing of Legends. We will study a traditional story, 'The Legend of Gelert', and will write our own legend narrative using the structures and features of this traditional text.
We will then produce an information text booklet about the achievements and the significance of the Ancient Greeks that will link to our History learning.
Reading
Our Reading lessons will focus on information retrieval and deduction and inference skills. We will use the text, 'The Mysterious Benedict Society' to make connections between and within texts in order to explore how writers create an effect on the reader.
Maths
We will begin our Year 5 learning in Maths by exploring Place Value. We will review how to read and write numbers to 100,000 and then move on to compare 6 digit numbers using bar models. We will learn about number patterns and how to round numbers.
