Year 5
We have two Year Five classes in our school: 5C and 5R.
In each class there are two adults, Miss Crane and Mrs Egan in 5C; Mr Coulson and Miss Blackburn in 5R. They help support your child’s learning each day; if you have questions or concerns, please see one of us at the classroom door either before or after school.
P.E. Day
Year 5 P.E. lessons are on a Monday (outdoor games) and Wednesday (indoor P.E.). Please make sure your child is wearing appropriate school P.E. kit.
Homework
As well as reading at home, children will be set homework each week on Times Table Rockstars. They will have 15 garage minutes to complete. Quick recall of times tables will be important as the demands of the maths curriculum increase – teachers will be tailoring TTR practice to your child’s needs to best support them fill any gaps in their knowledge.
Autumn 1
In Autumn 1, the children will write be developing their grammar and punctuation skills before writing some instructions, using How to Trap an Ogre as their model text. We will be using Maths No Problem to further children’s mathematical knowledge and understanding with our focus in Autumn 1 being place value. Our first few reading lessons are based around gladiators and Boudicca, but we will be using a range of texts to help develop our reading skills. In history, we will focus on how life in Britain changed during the Anglo-Saxon and Viking eras. Our first science topic will be forces and we will then begin looking at space. In our P.E. lessons we will be improving our hockey skills during games sessions and we are developing our ability to work together with some team building when we’re in the hall.
