Year 5   Learning Update

Central idea: The appreciation of art forms can be determined by the individual. 

In English this week, we have planned and started writing the opening to a narrative, based around 'The Last Wild'. The children have also looked at fronted adverbials and prepositional phrases ready to use them in their writing. 

In Maths, the children have continued their work on fractions, focusing on adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators. 

In Inquiry, we have begun looking into our second line of inquiry, which is how artforms can be used as a means of expression. The children explored different music and how we can express emotions through music. They have also looked at sculptures and architecture from around the world. 

Year 5 have started to practice their class song and the KS2 song for the Christmas concert, which they have thoroughly enjoyed.
