For real or a fake... you decide?

That is the question Y5 are researching at the moment in Literacy.

They are working in groups, gathering evidence that both supports and refutes the existence of UFOs.

When they have gathered their evidence they will need to create a balanced, unbiased report, which they will share with the rest of the class.

I have added a link to the National UFO Reporting Centre, it has up-to-date reports of UFO sightings.

Leigh Town Hall on PhotoPeach

We had a great time at the Town Hall, we met a lot of the people who worked there and found out all about the skills they need to do their jobs well.  We have thought about the skills we have and which jobs we might be good at in the future.

We all enjoyed the performance at the Park Centre.  Mrs Cavanagh is a bit nervous as she has to go back on Friday to learn some of the dance moves to teach to the children.

The Ludus Dance Company are coming to school in March to work with Y5 to create their own dance.

It was great to see most of you back at school today.  Was a great start to the term, you definitely seemed ready to settle down to work… well done!

Hope you’re enjoying the snow as much as we are!

I hope you are all enjoying the holidays and I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

Thank you so much for all my lovely cards and gifts!

Year 5 have been working with Wigan Business Partnership.

We have been working together and developing our personal capability skills.

Year 5’s Giant Tetrahedron on PhotoPeach

In Literacy Year 5 are studying tradional tales, in particular we are looking at the legend of Robin Hood.

I have added a link to the BBC Robin Hood website where you can learn more about each of the characters and maybe play the game.
