5W Class Assembly

The book Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief clearly inspired some great learning in 5W as they demonstrated in last Friday’s class assembly.  From their descriptive poems about the Minotaur which turned ‘knees to jelly’ and their drawings of places that are sacred, 5W’s lessons this half term linked impressively with Percy’s time at Camp Half Blood! Both Percy and 5W understand the importance of keeping fit with 5W’s PE lessons focusing on netball and swimming rather than fighting monsters from Ancient Greece!  With their work on place value helping the children calculate the number of snakes on Medusa’s head and their writing focusing on the use of descriptive vocabulary, the children certainly know their monsters!  5W’s assembly finished with the children explaining the Iceberg Illusion and the difference between a growth and fixed mindset as well as the song Fight!
