Welcome to Year 5's class page!
Our class teachers for this year are Mrs Wood and Mrs Dowd.
Welcome back. I hope everyone had a lovely Easter.
During the Summer term we will be learning about Earthquakes and Volcanoes in our topic lessons and our science will focus on our scienctific enquiry skills and materials.
In English, our focus novel will be Street Child and we will be planning our own escape from the workhouse for Jim.
In Maths we will start the term by recapping our understanding of place value including decimals and then look at fractions, decimals and percantages.
PE is on Thursdays and Fridays this term - please make sure that your child has their kit in school.
Homework
Maths - Times Tables Rock Star 25 minutes each week (Monday - Monday)
Spelling - Spelling Frame 25 minutes each week (Monday - Monday) and two tests completed.
Reading - Minimum of three times a week. Please record in reading logs and make a note of any unfamiliar vocabulary.
Timestables practice pages
To help with practicing their timestables, these 2 websites are set up in a very similar way to the actual test. Once your child is confident you always try decreasing the time you give them - or challenge them yourself to see who is the fastest!
