Pine Class Year 5/6
Welcome to Pine Class!
Welcome to Pine Class! We are a class of 26 kind and enthusiastic learners from Years 5 and 6.
Our teacher is Miss Elliot.
Throughout the week, we are supported by Mrs Suttner.
Our PE lessons are Monday morning and Thursday afternoon.
This term, we answer the question, 'How diverse are the Americas?'.
We will learn about their location on our planet and how this leads to a wide range of climates and physical geographical features throughout their landscapes. We will learn about the human geography of The Americas, considering the major exports of key countries and the natural resources and settlements in key locations. These will help us to consider how diverse The Americas really are.
In our English lessons, we will write a persuasive leaflet about Yellowstone National Park, encouraging tourists to visit this unique location. Later on in the term, we will use the animation ‘Hugh’, which retells the Apache Tribes traditional tale on how the stars were formed in the night sky.
Our class novel this term is by American author Louis Sachar and centres around the bad luck of Stanley Yelnats and his family. After Stanley is convicted of theft, he is sent to Camp Green Lake, a correctional facility with odd methods of rehabilitation! This book is a must read for all children; we know they will love it.
