Useful Information
Homework - Homework will be given out on a Thursday and due in the following Tuesday. Homework in Year 5 will be English, Maths and Spelling. Children are expected to learn their times tables and these are practised daily.
Reading - Children are expected to read at least 5 times a week at home. Please record reading at home in reading records. Reading records will be checked daily. Their achievements are shown on their class reading tree. Every child has an apple on the tree which moves around as their days reading at home increase. It becomes very competitive to be the first one to reach the 'Golden Apple'!
PE - We have 2 PE lessons per week. Please ensure PE kit is in school (including a change of footwear) Monday to Friday.
Autumn 1 – Take One World
To start the brand new school year, we shall be focusing on Take One World. We will look at our class animal, their habitat and how they are endangered. This will then link to our writing as we shall use the topic as basis for certain forms such as report writing and narrative. Within Geography, we shall be looking at maps, starting off with identifying parts of the United Kingdom and then the rest of the World.
