Our visitors from Bikeability helped us learn how to be safe when we cycle. We started by working on the yard, then went out onto the roads of Whickham. Road safety is important but it was also lots of fun. Articles 29, 31

This half term, we are learning about line. We have explored different types of lines and developed our skills in continuous line drawing.

Mr Robinson visited us from Whickham School, to teach us some French. We learned about how to describe clothes and how to say what we like to wear. We played lots of fun games together. Articles 28, 29

In Year 5, we have been experimenting with colour. We have learned that if you mix complementary colours, you can create a muted palette. We have looked at how and why artists use muted colours. Article 29

Year 5 have been working on their dance skills in P.E. This means thinking about working as a team, and matching our movements to the music. Can you guess the style of music we are dancing to? Articles 24 and 29

In History, we are learning about the Anglo-Saxons. We examined different artefacts, looking at what they were made from and how they were used. We recorded questions about the people who owned and made these things, and we’ll try to answer them this term.
