Dolphin Class Information

A bit about us...

We are the Dolphin's Class. There are 27 of us in total. Our Teacher is Miss Young. We are a very special Year 5 class from around the world. Many of us can speak more than two languages! We love learning and our favourite subjects are P.E, Literacy and Philosophy.

What we are learning...

In geography our topic is water. We will be exploring where water comes from and the consequences of wasting water.

In Literacy we have been reading the book ‘Friend or foe.’ Our main focus this term in and extending our writing and punctuating it correctly.

In maths we will be focusing on: calculations, place value, written methods for addition and subtraction and multiplication facts. We will be carrying out investigations to apply our knowledge of calculations.
