In Art, Year 5 have started researching the Spanish painter and sculptor Joan Miro. They discovered that his artistic talents were evident from a young age although his family did not agree with his passion for the subject. He developed his love for surrealist art in his adult years when he became an inspiration to other artists.
In Year 5 Music, we have started listening to Jazz and had a go at playing along on the chime bars.
In Science, Year 5 have been observing the effects of air resistance on parachutes. They have been investigating to find the relationship between the surface area of the parachute and the resulting air resistance; measuring this by seeing the time it takes for them to reach the ground when dropped.
In PE we have been practising our ball control skills and using these to improve our Endball gameplay.
