Jodrell Bank, by Miss Horvath
Date: 4th Dec 2019 @ 4:15pm
Year 5 had a wonderful, crazy day at Jodrell Bank today. We worked in teams to complete challenges and explored the many pavilions they had to offer. We learnt a lot about space and the British astronaut Tim Peake. At the end of the day, we worked in groups again to create a mars rover landing shuttle. Some passed the test but not all were fortunate as some cracked on landing!

The big finish
Year 5 researched and debated whether ‘the Anglo-Saxon period should have been known as the dark ages’. We divided ourselves in to two teams, for and against. A lot of us surprisingly changed our mind!! We were able to think critically and question each other accordingly.

DT- bread, by Miss Jones
Date: 31st Oct 2019 @ 8:24am
Year 5's DT topic is bread, we began our topic by thinking about different types of bread, we then discussed our 5 senses and but together a 'wow' list of vocabulary which we could use to describe the bread when we tasted it. Our favourite part was our product analysis of bread where we got to taste 8 different types! We then created a line graph to analyse the ratings which we gave each bread type. We can't wait to make our own bread product which is going to be Anglo- Saxon style bread.
How does bread link to the Anglo- Saxons?
