Mrs Thomson
Year 5
Welcome back! We have a busy half term ahead of us.
Our main English text for this helf term is Arthur and the Golden Rope
by Joe Todd-Stanton. The aim of our final piece of writing is to write a myth: to create characters (heroes, villains and monsters) and settings.
In History, we will be completing our topic on The Ancient Greeks. We will develop our understanding Greek Philosophers exploring key ideas and questions. Next we will describe how Ancient Greek democracy evolved. Finally we will explore the influence of Ancient Greece on various areas of modern life.
Our new Geography topic is Coasts.
Please see the Spring Term 1 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
