Oceania Year 5

Welcome to the Oceania Year 5 Class Page.  Here, you can find out about everything that we've been doing this term.

Friday 2nd May

 

Happy Friday everyone! It has been a great first week back in Oceania class this week filled with lots of new learning. We have started our new ‘Action’ unit in English where we have been exploring a story called ‘Through the door’. As well as this, we have also been continuing with our learning about WWI and this week we explored what life was like for people in Britain during WWI. We found out all about the important role that children played in the war efforts, especially those that were boy scouts or girl guides.

 

This week I wanted to share with you all the wonderful work the children have started in Music where we have begun preparing for our Big Sing concert happening in July. We will be attending the event in July at the Glasshouse where a number of schools all come together with a band to sing songs. This year’s focus is Zero Gravity and all of the songs have a link to space. We have started learning 2 of the songs already called ‘Rockstar’ and ‘Fly with the stars’. In just 40 minutes, the children have already learnt these songs and are singing them beautifully. I was so impressed by their ability to pick up the lyrics so quickly and they are certainly going to wow at the concert. Keep an eye on our class page over the Summer term as there may be a sneak peak of us performing one of the songs.

 

Have a lovely bank holiday weekend everyone!
