Welcome to Year 5!
with... Mrs Mowat, Mrs Evans and Miss Wildig.
Our Autumn theme is 'From Heroes to Legends'
We are excited to welcome you back into school and start our groovy Greek adventure. Stepping back into ancient times and delving in to their wonderful time period, our autumn term will be jam packed with adventures alongside mythical creatures and heroic Greek gods.
We are also excited to dive into the spellbinding new text ' Impossible Creatures' by Katherine Rundell.
If you are looking for inspiration and help with choosing your next book, check out this website which has a fantastic selection of recommended books for Year 5.
PE
Our PE slot's will be on a Tuesday (Outdoor 5ME & 5W), Wednesday (Indoor JUST 5ME) Thursday (Indoor JUST 5W)
Please ensure that your child has the correct kit in school each week. Long hair should always be tied back and earrings removed.
As the winter months approach, jogging bottoms and a warm jumper may be worn for outdoor PE.
91³Ô¹ÏÍøwork
Your homework will be given out on a weekly basis. This will be issued online via Google Classroom or via LBQ links (Learning Based Questions) on a Tuesday and we ask that this is returned the following Tuesday. We will talk the children through how to access this work ahead of it being submitted so that they are familiar with the LBQ links and how to return work.
This homework will include a piece of either English or Maths and at times, it may also be a topic based project.
We also ask that you continue to read at home and complete your progress in your reading journals (please bring these into school each day). Reading both aloud to a grown up and silently to yourself are both important skills to continue practising throughout this year.
Spellings
We will focus on words taken from the Year 5/6 spelling list which you can find within the ‘Files to download’ section of this webpage. During our English and Grammar sessions in school we will practise these but they will also thread into our learning throughout the week.
