Year 5 2025 - 2026
Mrs Thomson
Year 5
Welcome back! We have a busy half term ahead of us.
Our main English text for this helf term is The Lost Happy Endings by Carol Ann Duffy and Jane Ray. The aim of our final piece of writing is to write a traditional tale focussing on describing setting, characters and an alternative ending.
In History, we will be learning about The Ancient Greeks. We will develop our understanding of how Ancient Greece was organised and explore how we know so much about Ancient Greece. Next, we will research the differences between Athens and Sparta and explain the impact of Alexander the Great.
Please see the Autumn term 2 Topic Web for more information on topics this half term.
Our PE lessons are on Tuesday and Friday. Please make sure children come into school dressed in PE kit on those days.
Please also make sure that children have a named waterproof coat in school each day even if the weather looks fine in the morning.
If you have any questions or concerns, please get in touch athomson@mottramacademy.org.uk
Thank you for your support
Mrs Thomson
