What a busy couple of weeks we've had in Year 5! We've moved onto addition and subtraction in maths. We are working on our persuasive letters in English this week having learned about expanded noun phrases, types of clauses and modal verbs. In science, we have talked about and demonstrated several different methods of separating mixtures into pure substances. In history, we've now made it up to Henry VIII and next week we'll be looking at Elizabeth I before working on our final assessment. Most importantly though, we have had a very exciting week in RE. On Wednesday, we went up to the church in Chagford and Reverend Paul told us about God as holy and loving and how the way the church was built shows us that. The children also had the opportunity to draw and right about what they had learned about the church. Below, you'll see some pictures from our time there:
