Year 5
Class Teacher: Mrs C. Chidgey
Teaching Assistant: Mrs K. Mantell, Miss J. Streatfield
Welcome to Year 5
Time for another year of fabulous learning across our curriculum.
Across the Autumn Term, our Geography topic begins and our overall debate question is ‘What makes mountains and volcanoes dangerous? Why are people still attracted to them?’ We will learn about mountains and how they are formed, as well as natural disasters, such as volcanoes and earthquakes. We will use our Geography knowledge to inspire our written work in English.
Across the Spring Term, we begin to study ancient civilisations and our overall learning question is ‘What was the Shang Dynasty of ancient China?' We will learn about who the ancient Shang people were, when and where they lived and their beliefs. We also explore ancient artefacts to draw conclusions and use our knowledge to inspire our written work in English.
In the Summer Term, we learn about the Mayan civilisation and the challenges they faced, linking this to the time periods in history we have already studied. We will use our prior knowledge of the Anglo Saxons from Year 4 to answer the question ‘How did the Maya civilisation compare to the Anglo Saxons?'
We are very excited about our Year 5 journey. Our curriculum is very inspiring and we link our topic work to our learning in other areas of the curriculum. Don’t forget to visit our page to see our learning and fabulous work!
