Dissecting flowers!

During Science, on Wednesday, we dissected a range of flowers with our partners. We were able to pull apart the flower piece by piece and reveal the ovules (eggs) right in the centre. We created an exploded view diagram where we displayed each different piece of the flower on to an A3 sheet of paper with labels detailing what the part was and its function.

It was a lot of fun and the children were able to test out our new range of Science equipment too. Please enjoy the photo.

Thanks
Mrs Bailey

Tudor Knot Baking!

Good afternoon, Year 5 have been in the learning centre this morning baking delicious Tudor Knots! The children were split into groups and had to measure their ingredients accurately, mix the ingredients, knead the dough and shape their knots. All of the children had lots of fun and enjoyed eating their knots with runny honey and poppy seeds after. Another great day in Year 5. We hope you enjoy the pictures! Mrs Bailey and Year 5 :)

Welcome to Year 5!

Hi everyone, We have had a fantastic start in Year 5 and the children have definitely impressed us in the first couple of weeks! This week we have been looking at the life cycle of a butterfly as part of our Science topic. We have looked at each stage carefully and all produced some amazing writing for our display in the classroom. Today we started to put together our main pieces of art work for the display. This will be ongoing through the week for all the children to participate in. We are going BIG! Don't forget to check in after our visit to the beach on Thursday with the RNLI - I'm really looking forward to sharing our day already! Mrs Bailey :)
