This term we will be continuing to read 'There's a Boy in the Girls' Bathroom by Louis Sachar. We will be finishing this text and looking at playscripts towards the end of the term. 

Meet Bradley Chalkers. He's the oldest child in the class. He tells ENORMOUS lies. He picks fights with girls. The teachers say he has 'serious behaviour problems'. And no one likes him... except Carla, the new school counsellor. She thinks Bradley is kind and generous, and she even enjoys his far-fetched stories. Carla knows that Bradley could change, if only he weren't afraid to try. Sometimes the hardest thing in the world is believing in yourself.

In this timeless tale of reminiscent of simpler times, we follow Mole, who ventures forth from his underground home to the outside world where he meets Ratty. Mole and Ratty’s relationship blossoms into a heartwarming friendship, as they embark on adventures and meet other characters such as Badger and Toad. Kenneth Grahame’s tale of adventure and camaraderie will delight readers of all ages. Having gained a reputation as a beloved childhood story, The Wind in the Willows is a testament to the enduring bond of friendship and the charm in homely pleasures.

Topic Learning Year 5 Spring 2

This Topic we are learning about rivers and the water cycle. We will also be looking at different forces and their influence on objects in science. In French we will be learning about different French foods for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We will be continuing to spend some time everyday having Rainbow Time; to focus on ourselves, practice self care and develop positive mental health strategies through a variety of activities and mindfulness. In Maths we will be focusing on fractions and decimals- but remember to keep up with TT Rockstars! Your multiplication knowledge will certainly be of use in this topic. In English this term we will be looking at narratives and The Wind in the Willows text.
