Year 5
Our teacher is Mrs Akin.
Our teaching assistants are Mrs Smerencynska and Miss Wakeham.
Term 1
Welcome back to school and welcome to year 5! We have a fantastic year ahead and Term 1 is full of exciting new learning. We'll be reading one of my favourite books: Kensuke's Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo. This links to our art unit which explores how artists explore and represent the ocean. In Science we'll be learning about forces and our history topic asks the questions: Were the Vikings raiders, traders or something else?
Home learning
Children are expected to read at least 5 times a week, and log their reading at home in their yellow reading logs. Reading folders must be brought in every day so reading logs can be checked and updated as children read in school.
In Term 1 Children will also need to log into TT Rockstars from home, complete a short maths task and weekly spelling tasks or practise. Paper copies of home learning will be given out on Fridays to be handed in the following Friday. All home learning for Term 1 can also be accessed in the link below.
This term P.E will be on Mondays and Tuesdays.
You will need to wear:
- Plain black / navy shorts, plain white t-shirt or white t-shirt with school logo
- Trainers for outdoor PE
- Plain black / navy joggers and a plain black / navy sweatshirt or ‘hoodie’ may be worn for cold weather outdoor PE in the winter.
- A blue school fleece with logo is also available.
*Please do not wear different colours or clothes with other logos.*
