Whodunnit? *NEW*
Help Sherlock Holmes find the answers by searching the database.
Read the clues and put in the things to search for: sex = male or female, height = < or > followed by a number, name, surname = family name, passport = what nationality they are, features = anything else like moustache, scar, tattoo. Sherlock Holmes is a detective character from stories set in England in the 1880s. The author was called Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. |
Curriculum Information

This was the shape of the curriculum last year but I am looking to use website building as a thread to weave all the different elements together across the year. |
Welcome to Year 5
Hi everyone in Year 5. Thank you for visiting this website. We are just starting out but hope to have more and more content that you find useful. Please come and visit whenever you can. We will hopefully start to build our own websites towards the end of this term.

Unit 2
The second unit of work this term is all about databases.
What is a database? A database is information organised into records. Each record has the same type of information. Information can be of different types: text, numbers, dates and pictures. Why use a database? A database is organised so that you can find answers to questions. There are different ways of finding answers to questions. You can search, sort or make a graph. How do we make a database? After looking and searching databases to find answers, we will be creating our own class database. We will have a number of different fields of data including numbers and text. Further help: Use these videos to help your school work Database Links on the internet
