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. 

Maths

 As mathematicians, we will begin our Year 5 learning 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.
