Today we have all been mesmerised by the musicians who came into school to play us some live music.
We learned about the string family and some of the different instruments. The violin plays the highest notes, then the viola, then the cello, which plays deeper notes and deeper still is the double bass.
We have been offered an amazing opportunity to learn how to play the double bass (for free) at Deanery High School on Thursday nights next term!
I hope you take up this amazing opportunity Year 5!
Year 5 have been going swimming for the past 5 weeks and have been learning different strokes including; front crawl, backstroke, breast stroke and butterfly. On the last week, which was Friday 22nd of May 2015, we had a treat which was a fun day! Everyone had a great time with the floats and jumping in the pool.
We are looking forward to going again when we are in Year 6.
We have been learning Mandarin this year with Mrs Tang. All of Year 5 have really enjoyed learning about the history and culture and singing some of the traditional songs (with actions.)
We are very sad that it has now finished and we have to wait until Year 6 to have Mrs Tang again.
We especially enjoyed the eagle game and stand up, sit down. I hope you can remember how to say them Year 5!
Yesterday, Year 5 were so excited, they found out who their new Reception buddies will be next year. To welcome them into our school we made them a card to tell them a little bit about Woodfield and how much we are looking forward to meeting them!
Unfortunately the pictures are too large to upload. But I am sure if you ask the children, they will tell you all about what they did.
On Wednesday 13th May Year 5 had an exciting visit to Papa Luigi’s where they made delicious pizzas!
There were lots of toppings to choose from such as: ham, peperoni, pinnapple and chicken.The chefs showed the class how to spread the dough and sprinkle the cheese.
Keep calm and eat pizza
Whilst some groups were making or eating their pizzas, the others enjoyed colouring and wearing their own chef hats. Towards the end of the visit everybody got the chance to try their giant pizzas(they were lovely.)
After, when everyone came back, hardly anyone felt like eating their lunch!However some people such as Leo, who piled his pizza high, managed to eat the whole pizza plus ALL of his lunch too!:D
We thought that the trip was really exciting and fun for all of the class!!!
This weeks Star Reporters are James J and Abigail!
Today Year 5 had lots of fun making their own pizza at Papa Luigi’s restaurant. This week I think our star reporters will want to tell you a little more about our visit!
Special thanks to Mrs Kyle for coming down with us and helping us out.
Each week we will keep you up to date with everything we have been getting up to. If you would like to add a comment about what we have been up to that would be great.
Stay tuned and we will be posting some pictures and information.
