Year 5 - Maths and Literacy

In Y5 this week, the children have been learning about fractions of numbers and shapes.  We have also been applying appropriate written methods to word problems. In Literacy, we have been reading the story 'Around the World in Eighty Days'.  We have been learning about different ways to develop our story starters using speech, action and description.  We have also been exploring how we can use speech sentences in our writing.
