This week year 5 have started their new literacy topic, writing a diary based on Scott’s trip to the Antarctic. 

To prepare, we had an experience day using camping equipment to ‘camp out’ in the school playground. Some of us got rather cold!

In maths, we are coming to the end of our multiplication topic where we have been multiplying 2,3 and even 4-digit numbers! They have done a great job and shown real resilience throughout the topic. 

In science, we have continued our investigations into forces and their effects on objects. We have looked at how different amounts of mass can stretch an elastic band.
