Year 5

Welcome to Year 5's Class Page!

Hello and welcome to Year 5!

This will be an exciting year and one that will prepare your child for their final year at primary school. Mrs Geddis, Miss Watson and I will be identifying and filling any gaps in your child's learning and ensuring that they make the most progress they can. We will also be recognising your child's strengths and stretching them to reach their potential.

If you have any questions or concerns about your child's learning, or any other aspect of Year 5, please contact me by email:

timothychan@stonehill.herts.sch.uk

If you prefer to speak to me in person, please let me know and I will arrange a time to speak to you.

Many thanks,

Mr Chan

Spring 2 Curriculum:

This project teaches children about the wider properties of materials and their uses. They learn about mixtures and how they can be separated using sieving, filtration and evaporation. They study reversible and irreversible changes, and use common indicators to identify irreversible changes.

This project teaches children about developments and changes over six periods of ancient Greek history, focusing on the city state of Athens in the Classical age, and exploring the lasting legacy of ancient Greece.

This project teaches children about paper crafts, papermaking and collage techniques, including paper, fabric, mixed media and photo collage. They use their learning to create a final piece of small-scale, mixed media collage.

This project teaches children about how architectural style and technology has developed over time and then use this knowledge to design a building with specific features.
