Curriculum Overview Spring 2019

SPRING 2019

Topic

This half term the question we are posing to Year 5 is ‘Were the Vikings vicious?’ Within this topic we will be investigating different aspects of Viking life and how they invaded Britain.

For our Wow day, to introduce the topic, we designed and created our own models of Viking Longships. We had lots of fun using junk modelling to create these boats and our finished products looked great!

English

This half term we are basing our lessons around the book ‘Clockwork or All Wound Up’ by Philip Pullman. The children have already made their predictions using the evidence available. Some predictions were very imaginative!

Will we use the book to support our learning and creating of our very own narrative.

Maths

This half term we will be focusing on shape and fractions.

Science

Over this term our science topic is Living things and their habitats. This will involve exploring the different parts of a flowering plant as well as looking at specific animals and their habitats.
