Introduction to Year Five
In Year 5, children have the opportunity to gain a greater independence and confidence in their own learning. Children are increasingly encouraged to take responsibility for their own learning, as well as being responsible for organising themselves. Year 5 are encouraged to develop their ‘can do’ attitude and develop their growth mindset. Children are encouraged to demonstrate a variety of skills and qualities, such as perseverance, resourcefulness, collaboration and reflectiveness.
Our main Year 5 topics include:
Ancient Maya / Mountains
Anglo Saxons / Volcanoes
Vikings / European Region
We have the opportunity to visit Cadbury World in the Autumn term, to enhance our knowledge of the Mayan civilisation (and of course taste some tempting chocolate).
We also have an Viking experience in the Summer term, a 'Viking' visits St Nicholas and sets up camp in our school field. The children spend the day fully immersed in the Viking way of life, having the opportunity to handle items and hear traditional stories.
