Carnarvon Primary School

Year 5

Welcome to Year 5!

Welcome to the Year 5 Web Pages. We are excited to be back in school and have lots of fun learning ahead of us. Here is what we will be learning about this term:

Our topics this term are 'What's Happening in Space?' and 'What are the Features of a River?'.
In maths, we will be continuing with our work on multiplication and division (including factors, multiples, prime numbers and square numbers), with a focus on reasoning and problem solving as well as fluency.
English lessons will continue concentrate on developing sentence structure. Children will be learning how to recognise and add a range of subordinate clause types into their writing. We will then be applying this into non-fiction writing such as 'Explanation Texts' related to our topics.
Science lessons will focus on 'Light' and 'Earth and Space'. They will learn how light travels and how shadows are made. Children will also learn about the solar system and how it operates. They will also be undertaking a range of experiments to investigate further.

We will be adding photographs during the year. Come back regularly to have a look and use what's online here!
