P5: Ms FINLAY
Welcome to P5. We have a very busy year, starting with looking at Stone Age and Northern Ireland. This topic culminates in a fun stone age day with lots of dressing up, stone age hunting and gathering games and getting to enjoy some food around the campfire after a hard day's work. We enjoy looking at local habitats and incorporating how climate change is impacting on habitats as we know them.
During the year we journey virtually to India and Ancient Egypt to explore different cultures in the past and present. One of our other topic explores the human body and looking at how we can make decisions to keep our body and mind fit and healthy.
We enjoy opportunities to engage in school trips and virtual workshops with authors, Chest Heart and Stroke, Ulster Musuem and Clandeboye Estate and more.
The topics covered in P5 include:
The Stone Age and Northern Ireland
Changing habitats
Mighty Me
Journeys (India)
Forces and Energy
Ancient Egypt
Regular updates and weekly Class Focus Sheets are distributed to each year group via their Class Dojo page.
