In Year 5 we are committed to supporting pupils in increasing their cultural capital. Every day we engage with a variety of music, poetry and art from the world's most famous artists. Find out about who we have been studying this year below:

Arts and Culture - Music

We listen to music from great composers and discuss a number of aspects of these pieces:

 

  • Interpreting the composer's intentionality and the meaning behind the music.
  • Discussing our own emotional reaction to the music.
  • Using musical vocabulary to describe the different facets of the music
  • Using broader vocabulary to describe the music and discuss links with other art we have studied.
