Starry Night<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Year 5 students are looking at symbol, imagery and connotation in literature. They started the unit using the VR Headsets to watch videos of Vincent Van Gogh\u2019s ‘Starry Night’, natural environments and a magical forest. Students then were challenged to use complex vocabulary and figurative language to describe each scene. There was much enthusiasm and discussion as the students worked together to share and record their thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In 5A we have been working on Chance in Maths. In our first lesson we were given a bunch of words (eg likely, possible, probable, won\u2019t happen) and we put them in a line from impossible to certain. Next we sorted the words into three columns (impossible, possible and certain) with the people on our table. Then we did the same but with decimals and fractions. If today was this fun then I can\u2019t wait to see what the rest of the unit has in store for us.<\/em>
