Year 5 Weekly Blog (13. 11. 20)

Date: 12th Nov 2020 @ 2:25pm

This week in Year 5 we have continued our topic "Street Child," learning all about life in a Victorian workhouse, after Jim Jarvis the main character in our class novel, was taken to the workhouse after becoming an orphan. The children produced the most beautiful history work, demonstrating what they had learnt with the most fantastic presentation and knowledge. They also wrote deeply emotional letters as Jim, explaining the tragic news to his sisters, that their Ma had died. The children's use of abstract nouns created the most powerful letters that many Year 5 staff had tears in their eyes. 

In maths, we have now completed the multiplication part of Chapter 3 MNP and move on to division.
