P5B 2023-24

We have started Term 4 in Music by learning about the importance of looking after our planet and how we can reduce, reuse and recycle our waste materials. Having been inspired by the Landfillharmonic orchestra of Paraguay, we created our own musical instruments out of things that we would normally throw away. Here are a few photos of the class making their instruments.

Watch the clip to see us using our recycled instruments as part of an Earth Day song.

Welcome back after our Easter break everybody. We are well underway with our learning this term.

Please find attached the curriculum information for this term, containing our planned learning.

Term 4 Curriculum Information

We have finished the term doing Athletics in PE.  With only three weeks, we focused a week each on the three areas of the sport – running, jumping and throwing.  One of our running events was a 5 minute run, building up to being able to run a 400m, once round the track, at sports day.  We completed it twice and will continue practicing it next term.

Here are some pictures of our work.

P5 have been playing badminton in PE.  We have worked on a lot of individual skills and basic hitting with a partner.  We also spent some time on creating a practice that developed our aiming that the other groups then had a go at.  Here are a few pictures of those practices.
