The Olympics are upon us!  We have teamed our learning to make the most of this exciting time.  Here is what the children will be doing over the next 3 weeks.  We recommend that you log in to the Queenspark School Library website to make the most of the information on the Year 5 Concept page. 

Welcome back!

Welcome to term 3!  We hope you've had a wonderful holiday. Our topic for this term is ADVENTURE, we have been focusing on what adventure means to us. We have written procedures on whatever we wanted and then published them.  They include How to Kick a Goal in Soccer, How to Draw an Ice-Cream, How to Draw a Person, and How to make an Origami Chair, just to name a few.

Also, we are focusing on the Olympics, we have to make a 4 page report, 1 page is for a profile of our Olympian we have chose, another for facts about that person, another for facts about the sport they play, and the last for facts about the country they come from. It looks like it will be great fun.

Thanks for reading,

name bugs

RM22 have been making some bugs out of our names.
we wrote our names      
on a piece of paper, then traced over them with pastel.
Then we pressed down on the piece of paper and made a mark so that we could trace over it.
Then we turned the piece of paper around so it looked like a bug.
Then we coloured it in and dyed the background.
when everyones name bug was finished they looked AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Elgrego

We went to a show and at the show as a magician called Elgrego. He was amazing at doing magic tricks. The first act he did was turning a sheet into a bird called ZuZu. He also made a bird sitting on tree in a painting come out of the painting.  He also put a ball through a mirror. and he had loads of wine bottles inside a container that could only fit one. also he turned paper into snow. Also, They broke somebody's shoe and put it back with first aid.He taught us how important it is to respect others and to say stop if somebody is bullying you.

Art time!

Room 22 linked their names on a piece of paper, then we put pastel and crayon on top of it.  Next we folded it over and made a mark on both sides of the paper so we could colour it in.  We had made alien name bug with only writing our names!  We have some examples here.
