This week, Year 5 have been thinking about what we are like as people and how when we wear masks people can’t always see how amazing we are. We all created a masked and unmasked portrait to share our personalities.
I look forward to them all being finished and up on display.
Can you guess who is who?
Well Done to the year 5 children who competed in the Rotherham School Tennis Festival at Moorgate Tennis Club on the 2nd July.
Today in Design Technology, Year 5 began constructing their bird hides. They used ideas developed when making their models with art straws.
Today, Y5 and Y6 had their Sports Day. We all participated in running, jumping and throwing activities and finished with a distance race and a relay. Congratulations to everyone for taking part.
First we began with a parade around the field.
After warming up, we all joined in athletics events including sprints, long distance, relays, throwing and jumping.
Thank you to the helpers and Mrs. Jepson who helped it all run so smoothly.
Congratulations to Jericho.
We all had lots of fun!
Today, Year 5 had a visit from a Viking. He told us that the name ‘Viking’ is really a job description. We looked at lots of artefacts and used evidence to decide what they were made of and what they might have been used for.
Last week in design technology, we learned that triangles are stronger shapes than squares. Today we learned how to make shapes stronger by adding card triangles. An ‘L’ joint allows two pieces of wood to be joined at right angles. ‘L’ joints are used to make the corners of rectangular frames. Some people also made square frames or ‘T’ joints using lolly sticks.
