This week, Year 5 have been developing their team-building skills in PE. The children took part in a variety of activities that challenged them to communicate and work together in different ways to achieve a shared goal. These included working as a team to make different shapes and passing a hoop around a circle without breaking the chain. It was a great opportunity to practise cooperation, problem-solving and effective communication.

In Maths, the children have been developing their understanding of place value. They have been reading and representing numbers into the hundred thousands, as well as identifying numbers that are 100, 1,000 and 10,000 more or less. They have also explored how numbers change when they become 10, 100 and 1,000 times greater, helping to strengthen their understanding of the value of each digit.

Well done, Year 5, for showing such fantastic teamwork, perseverance and enthusiasm for your learning this week!
