Year 5

Welcome to Year 5!

 This year taught by Miss Dunne and Miss Crilly.

Our topic for Spring One is…

Earthlings!

This term we will be looking at all things ‘space’ involved, by exploring science fiction novels, space itself, creating our own planet and even doing gym ‘space themed’.

We believe that it is equally important to hear each other read, as well as having independent reading time. We are currently reading ‘Aquila’ as our class novel. It is important that your children are reading at home!

Please do not hesitate to contact me in school or by Class Dojo if you need anymore information.

Important Information

Spellings are sent out every Friday, for the children to learn and practise over the following week. These spellings are linked into our spellings lessons of the week in school and then the children will be tested on their knowledge and understanding of each spelling on the following Friday.

Additional homework will be sent home on a regular basis. This could be either English, Maths, Topic (or all). These should be brought into school on the following Monday from the date they were handed out.

Latest from Year 5

Read Foundation School, Basnara, Pakistan

In Year 4 and Year 5, we have been setting up a link with Read Foundation School, in Basnara, Pakistan.

The children have made their first contact today, which is creating an ‘All About Me’ sheet, discussing themselves, school and what they are good at.

We will forward to hearing back!

 

Kensuke’s Kingdom

This term during shared reading, we will be reading the novel Kensuke’s Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo. Ask your children about it… They are loving it!
