Week beginning 23rd February 2026
Year 5 Blog
Welcome back!
In PE we have started gymnastics with Mrs Dixon! We warmed up on the mats and then we got the apparatus out. We learned: log roll, dish roll, circle roll, straddle jump, pike jump, tuck jump and straight jump. We used a spring board, a table top and a bar to help us!
We actually had some sun this week! This is going to dry the ground for us to be able to get out into the garden soon! We can't wait!
This week we have really been focussing on high expectations. Ella and Julia have received their pen licences and Mrs Carr said EVERYONE is on the list to get theirs next. All we need to do is make sure our presentation is the best it can be, we form our letters correctly and we have a good go at our spelling. I wonder who will be next...?
In Maths we have been doing fractions. Our favourite bit of sticky knowledge is "what you do to the bottom, you gotta do to the top!"
In writing, we have done our purple write for walking with our Iguana. We have also written really good persuasive letters about topics we are passionate about.
In History, we are learning about Dursley and we are going on a school trip there soon!
See you next week!
