WELCOME TO SATURN CLASS - YEAR 5
Mr Moss
A MESSAGE FROM MR MOSS...
Happy New Year!
This term, Saturn Class will be stepping back in time to visit Ancient Egypt! We will be learning about what ancient artefacts can tell us about the past, how the Egyptians developed some of the world's oldest writing, and why so much of their treasures ended up in London!
As well as this, we will be doing 'crumble coding' - the second of three STEM workshops (see video below) and will be welcoming the City of London Sinfonia in March, who will be performing some exciting music and working with us on an exciting composing project.
I am really looking forward to it!
Mr Moss.
CLASS BOOK
We will continue to read the story of Maia as she ventures into Brazil, enriching our understanding of our Autumn term Geography topic - South America - and reminding us how values have changed since Victorian times.
LONG SHOP SOUND MACHINE
We enjoyed a fabulous afternoon at the Long Shop Museum in Leiston, seeing live steam engines and live music!
POWER UP STEM!
We had a fantastic day of Science and DT, learning about hydraulics and pneumatics. See our pneumatic tipper trucks and amazing hydraulic games in this gallery.
