Sunny, sunny, sunny!

Hello and welcome back to the Year Five Blog!

We have enjoyed such a lovely sunny week haven't we? Well, it has been at the time of writing so if the weather has taken a turn for the worse when you read this then all I can do is apologise!

Let's see what the children have been up tp this week...

Speed Sharing

Last (but by no means least) to take part in the Year Five Speed Sharing experience was the lovely 5PC! I was in the throes of teaching when I could hear lots of impressed Mr Chadwick noises(you need to hear them to believe them!) coming from the Year Five corridor. I quickly grabbed my camera, temporarily abandoned my class and took the following photographs:

Well done 5PC, another great sharing session!

Streetwise

As you know, 5AD went to Streetwise last week so it was the turn of 5GR, 5PC and 5KD this week. We all had a great time at this incredible Safety Centre and learnt so much! Many of our children had been to Streetwise whilst they were in Key Stage One yet they enjoyed this trip enormously and felt that it was extremely beneficial.

Here are a few pictures of the 5GR experience - did you visit the same scenarios or did you look at different ones?

What was your favourite scenario?

ICT Lessons

"Mrs Ray! Mrs Ray! I've got some great photos for the Blog!" yelled Miss Enever as she chased me down the corridor.

I quicky turned around as I am always on the lookout for new items to post on the blog.

"That's great!" I enthuse, "I'll include them on this week's post."

"Brilliant! I hope you enjoy them." she said happily.

"I'm pretty sure I will - thank you so much," and off I trotted to Room 4.

Well, here are the photographs for your enjoyment. All I cam work out is:

1. It is an ICT lesson.

2. It's 5KD

3. Mr Haigh was teaching them

4. The lesson has something to do with Lego.

5. Animation might be involved.

If you were in this lesson or experienced a similar lesson to this, please could you tell us about what you were up to in the Comments section below because I don't have a Scooby Doo!

Thank you!
