This week in year 5 we are learning how to divide a whole number with a remainder.

We had to  express the answer as a whole number,a fraction or as a decimal.

Wow, year 5 haven’t we had a brilliant time working on our project? What we would really like to know now is:

What was your favourite part of the project?

What would you like to do again?

What would you differently?

How are you going to remember what you have learnt?

What did you learn that you didn’t know before?

More of Y5’s brilliant stories.

The question was which is denser, cool air or warm air?

We said warm air, find out why cool air is denser.

There’s a prize for the most accurate answer.

Y5 have been designing, planning, constructing and playing musical instruments.

Next half term we are going to write and perform a pantomime to KS 2. It’s going to be absolutely brilliant, I can’t wait! Have you ever been to a pantomime? Do you know the names of any pantomimes? What type of characters, settings and problems are there in pantomimes?

We will also be going to the Grand Theatre in Wolverhampton to watch the pantomime Aladdin!
