     Croeso I Dosbarth Oak 

    The class is taught by Mrs Williams, and Mrs Campbell who will support the learning of pupils in Year 5 and 6. 

                                                  

    Summer Term Topic - Dawins Delights. 

    Throughout this topic, we will be focusing on the  Science and Technology element of the curriculum. During this topic, pupils will be learning all about Charles Darwin and his theory of Evolution. This topic highlights not just Darwin’s findings, but the sense of wonder and observation that drove his work.

    This topic helps us understand big ideas like:

    • How animals and plants are suited to where they live (adaptation)
    • How living things can be a little different from each other (variation)
    • How some survive better in their environment over time. 

     

     

                                 

      Key information                                                             

    Homework - Sent home on Friday to be returned on Tuesday. Homework is a consolidation of the work that has been taking place in class. An opportunity for pupils to show their understanding without teacher support and keep parents informed on the learning taking place. Maths and literacy will be sent, sometimes in their homework folders, other times on Google Classroom. Mrs Williams  will talk through the homework prior to releasing the pupils each Friday. Homework folders will also include a home-reader book for pupils and new spelling words to learn each week.
