Autumn 2
In our English and Guided Reading this half term, Year 5 have focused their work around the novel: War Horse by Michael Morpurgo. This links with our History topic- the First World War. The children have enjoyed reading a first-hand account of the war from the cavalry horse, Joey.
In addition to War Horse, the children have also completed work based around the Sainsbury's Christmas advert and the Christmas Truce; a key event from the First World War. The children enjoyed reading aloud an imagined playscript from that Christmas Day, with 5KC performing a section for their Christmas video. (This can be found online in the parents' section of our Year 5 page.)
