Miami Class Assembly

On November the 4th Year 5 Miami Class had their class assembly.
The theme students in the primary school are learning all about is Knowledge so Year 5 gave the audience some knowlenge of their own. They did that by testing them with some clickers instead of the audience just watching them. They had four rounds; Literacy, Geography, Science and History.

For Literacy they talked about their work on Dick King Smith earlier that term, they also told the audience some facts they researched on their favorite authors that they were assigned as homework to make a presentation. The audience was showed some of the books the children had written in the style of Dick King Smith.

In the Geography round they talked about what they found out on their Thematic Learning theme of Migraton. The children described most of the reasons people might migrate such as; natural disasters, political unrest, war and jobs.

Science was all about their research on whales and how they migrate. They talked about the two types of whales (Baleen and Toothed whales) and some of the species of whales included. The audience was also told many facts about whales.

And finally in the Science round the whole of Miami Class performed a play all about Guy Fawkes because on November 5th (the day after the assembly) it way Guy Fawkes day also known as Bonfire Night.

The clicker scores ended up with Year 5 Philadelphia in first place!
Well done Philadelphia!


This is the end of the fantastic blog!

Whale Watching

On Friday 7th October Year 5 went on a whale watching trip; By the way it was awesome!! :)

Year 5 saw only Humpback whales but they were still more awesome than seeing nothing! Humpbacks are one of the biggest whales in the world but the blue whales are the biggest whale/animal in the world, they are almost extinct. Year 5 had a lot of fun even though there were a few people who got sea sick.

Whales are amazing animals because they have so much talent in swimming.

That is the end of the amazing blog about whale watching.
