What an excellent start to the summer term Year 5 have had! We wrapped up our learning linked to Shakespeare’s Macbeth by choosing a favourite scene from the book to perform using our puppets. Our new core text is The Lost Words by Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris. We have begun to explore kenning poetry and write some of our own. In geography we have started our topic of coastal features, where we have learnt how to write 6-figure grid references and understand the features of coastlines. You will see in the photos below some lovely examples of our observational house drawings from our new art topic. This week we used viewfinders to choose a section of our sketches to develop into a monoprint. In science we have been able to enjoy our wonderful outside space as we looked for flowers to identify the male and female parts needed for reproduction.
