"The Explorer" Year 5 taste fruit of the Rainforest!

, , , , , , , , , , , , ,

As part of their Rainforest Topic, and to enhance their reading of our class text,"The Explorer", Year 5 enjoyed tasting a variety of fruit on Friday!  In the book, the characters have just discovered pineapples, after eating grubs to survive!  On offer were pineapples, blueberries, lychee, kiwi fruit and mango.  Most children tried them all and rated them, with a view to persuading others to eat them (or not!)   Even Mr Foley tried lychee for the very first time! He rated it 5/10!   Mrs Blomeley

Team Building in Year 5!

, , , , , , , ,

 

Year 5 enjoyed the first session of their new focus in PE today - OAA.  Their task was a team building challenge where they had to demonstrate agility, balance, coordination and precision.  They had to use non-verbal communication to solve a problem - to get into alphabetical order by surname, whilst standing on the bench, without stepping off!  They were only allowed to use hand gestures - no talking or mouthing! All of the teams were impressive - they put their dictionary skills to great use!  Well done everyone!  Mrs Blomeley

Year 5's Crumble Coding Computer Workshop!

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Year 5 were amazing in the Crumble Coding Workshop yesterday!  They followed the instructions perfectly to produce a piece of wearable tech to use in their exploration of the Rainforest!  Year 5's ideas were brilliant, ranging from helping them to see in the dark, to actually attracting Poison Dart Frogs with their self-designed caps, belts or wristbands!  Their behaviour and listening skills were fantastic and we were so impressed!  Thank you to Don and Liz for all your help - we really enjoyed the session!  Mrs Blomeley and Ms Wagstaff.
