In Design & Technology, we’ve been learning how pulleys work. Using cardboard, string, and a hot glue gun, we created our own pulley systems to lift a toy car — a fun and hands-on way to explore mechanical systems.

In Science, we’ve been studying the eight planets and discussing what happened to Pluto. We also explored what life might be like in space, especially aboard the International Space Station.

Geography lessons have focused on the pressing issue of climate change. We’ve discussed its causes, consequences, and the steps we can take to help protect our planet for future generations.

One of the highlights of the week was our end-of-year dance performance of Annie. We gave it our all and loved performing it for our parents — a joyful way to celebrate the end of the year.

Next week, we begin our journey into Year 6 with our new teacher, Mr. Hebb. We’re excited and curious to see what the year ahead will bring!

In Reading, we continued diving into our Pledge book, Which Way to Anywhere by Cressida Cowell. It’s a thrilling adventure story filled with imaginative worlds, alternative maps, and brave characters. We’re really enjoying the twists and turns of the plot and discussing the themes it explores.

In Design & Technology, we explored how cogs and gears work. After learning the theory, we had the chance to put our knowledge into practice building our own cardboard cog mechanisms.

Science lessons have continued to focus on space and orbits. We've been learning how the planets move in our solar system and how gravitational forces keep everything in motion.

In Geography, we’ve been tackling the important topic of climate change. We discussed the causes, consequences, and what we can do to help protect our planet.

It’s also been a week full of special visitors. Mr. Simpson joined us to teach about the concept of pilgrimage in R.E., helping us understand why people take spiritual journeys and what they mean to different faiths. The PCSOs also visited to talk about safety and community values.

We’re also wrapping up our drama work with Hull Truck Theatre. Our final workshop with Sophie is on Friday, just before our performance next Tuesday. We’ve been rehearsing The Tempest and had our first go at performing it in front of an audience—Year 3 and 4. We were a bit nervous at first, but it turned out to be a lot of fun and a great confidence boost.

Looking ahead, next week is packed with excitement! We’ve got Rocksteady music performances, our trip to Hull Truck Theatre to perform our Shakespeare piece, an inspiring STEM day at the MKM Stadium, and we'll round off the week with our much-anticipated Sports Day.

We’re looking forward to another week filled with curiosity, creativity, and discovery!

Children will need their PE kits Tuesday and Thursday next week. 

In Writing, we’ve been exploring poetry with a focus on using metaphors to create vivid imagery and meaning.

In Reading, we’ve continued to decode William Shakespeare’s The Tempest. We also had our first in-school workshop with the Shakespeare Company as we prepare for our performance at Hull Truck Theatre—rehearsals are now underway!

In Science, we investigated the force of friction by measuring in Newtons. We also explored air resistance through a parachute experiment and consolidated our understanding of pulleys.

In Computing, we created our own vector drawings by grouping shapes, copying, pasting, resizing, and adjusting features.

In History, we’ve been learning about early civilisations, including the Shang Dynasty, Kingdom of Kush, Indus Valley, and Ancient Sumer.

Next week we will be asking the questions.

• How can I use precise vocabulary to enhance the meaning of a poem?
• How do I add and subtract decimals with the same number of decimal places?
• What will I discover on our ‘Food and Farming’ day?
• Does the shape of an object affect the level of water resistance?

Dance this week will take place Monday and Friday. Please remember to come in your PE kit.
