PE During PE in Year 5 the children will: Develop a broader range of skills and will learn how to use them in different ways.
During our Geography lessons, the children will find out about the major mountains of the world and the UK. They will learn about the different ways in which mountains have been formed, and how different features of mountain ranges have been shaped over time. Children will have the opportunity to consider what the weather is like in a mountainous environment and to evaluate the impact that tourism has on a mountainous region.
Play competitive games and apply basic principles for attacking and defending. Develop flexibility, strength, technique, control and balance. Perform dances using a range of movement patterns Compare their performance with previous ones and demonstrate improvement to achieve their personal best.
Music
During Autumn 2, the children’s focus in music will be Classroom Jazz. They will concentrate on listening and appraising, this includes recognising a variety of styles, finding the pulse, recognising instruments and other dimensions of music. They will be involved in musical activities such as playing an instrument, either in a band or group ensemble. Children in 5BF will have the opportunity to explore and create their own responses, melodies and rhythms.

Geography Computing We will be focusing on Information technology this half term. We will be learning how to create spreadsheets by inserting formulae. We will learn that the =SUM formulae finds totals and that formulae results update automatically. We will also be learning what a database is and how they are used. We will also become computational thinkers in order to create an interactive activity. In addition, we will continue to use technology safely, respectfully and responsibly.
