YEAR 5 (WILLOW)
Welcome to Willow class page.
In Year 5, we aim to build on previous learning while securing fundamental skills ready for Year 6. This year, children are growing in maturity and are given greater independence in their learning, enabling them to grow in confidence. We also offer Maths Booster sessions after school, enabling children to push their thinking while consolidating previous years learning.
Children are given more responsibility with their own learning, for example having more opportunity to discuss and debate their own ideas. Furthermore, we have a wide range of activities, such as our Volcano WOW day to inspire the children and enable them to learn in a range of creative ways. In our lessons, children will work in a range of ways from debates to acting, from building 3D shapes in Maths to explaining their ideas and opinions in History and using our outside space for Science.

Year 5 WOW DAY : EXPLORING VOLCANOES
Year Five became geologists for the day with a focus on studying volcanoes. After, making their own POP rock volcano, they then made another fizzy drinks bottle volcano, which they made erupt using mentos later in the day. They also studied the layers of the Earth through creating a Plasticine earth 'cut throughs' model. It was a seismic day!
