Year 5 Weekly Review

Summer 2 Week 6: 7th - 11th July 2025

Weekly Review 

This week in Year 5 has been spectacular. Firstly, we want to congratulate the children on incredible performances on Tuesday and Wednesday; we are so proud of them. Thank you also to you, the parents, who have provided much encouragement and enthusiasm. Moving to more academic topics, in Science we have finished our unit on the human life cycle by learning about the lifecycle of humans themselves and the milestones we make as we grow older. In Art we created ink press art inspired by Tiers Albers, ready for drawing and decoration next week; it is currently looking amazing!

English:

In English this week, we finished out independent non-chronological reports and for the final week in English we will be writing poetry about the creature of ‘Tyger’ from the text ‘Tyger’ by J.F.Said. 

Maths:

In Mathematics this year we concluded our unit on angles and next week we will be finishing off the term learning about transformations.  

PATHs:

In PSHE this week, we learnt about first aid, head injuries and bleeding. We learnt how to stay calm in these situations and seek the appropriate help if they happen. We also learnt about peer pressure and how this can make us commit to decisions that we don’t actually agree with. We also looked at strategies we could adopt to make our own minds up and overcome these pressures. 

Key vocabulary

Social pressure, peer pressure, ink pressing, performance, South Korea.
