In Year 5, we have been doing English and our topic is on a book called the Street Child. The book is about a homeless boy and a man who pulls him off the street and gives him nice clothes and food. In Maths, our topic is numbers to 10,000 and we sometimes use counters because they help us to see the place value visually. In science, our topic is forces and we are investigating .

We run a mile every day which is fun!

In Anti-Bullying-Week we learned that the most bullying is from Online Bullying. It is from phones mostly and computers. More than 50% of Bullying is online. If you get bullied, the best thing to do is block the person and report them so they can’t message you. You could also not respond and put your social media on the private setting.
