This half term our class book is Amazing Evolution by Anna Claybourne. We will be writing a persuasive speech to the Victorian public to encourage them to trust the theory of Darwin and Wallace; evolution by natural selection.

Year 5 pupils began their swimming lessons this week. Some of us were excited and some of us were unsure how to feel before we got there but all of us had a fantastic time and can not wait to get back in there.
This week, in computing, we wrote a code for a letter of the alphabet (we often chose our initials). If the desired outcome was not achieved, we checked our codes and debugged them. Team HG did an excellent job!
Last week, in computing, we learned how to instruct logo to draw.
We wrote codes to create a number and tested if we had been successful. As our science topic on habitats comes to an end we looked at how humans affect the environment and how that can sometimes cause dangers to animals. We created information texts focussing on: urbanisation, pollution, deforestation and invasive species. We looked at how animals and their habitats are affected and how we can help.
This week we started our short burst narrative writing. This is our assessed piece and involves short bursts on a given image for each section of our story. So far we have written amazing descriptive settings for our opening. It turned out to be pictures we were beholding so we travelled into the magical pictures for our build up.
