Welcome to Year 5
Class Teacher: Miss Schiller
Teaching Assistant: Mr Canning/Mrs Daniel
This year is a very exciting, important year for us as we prepare for the next crucial stage in our education – secondary school.
In Year 5, we strive to be respectful, hardworking and determined individuals. With an eagerness to learn, we strive to work as hard as we possibly can and support each other every step of the way. We are keen to develop our increasing independence and responsibility. Not only will we achieve this by being positive role models for other children, but we also have additional opportunities for responsibility.
Positive attitudes, hard work and teamwork are 3 of the many aspects that we are recognised for in our weekly certificates and within our Dojo Points. This is a chance for us to celebrate each other and our successes. Please continue to check the school’s website and Facebook page for updates and weekly achievements.
PE will take place on a Monday and Friday. This means you need to wear your full PE tracksuit (our school tracksuit with black trainers or black plimsolls), or a plain black tracksuit.
Homework will consist of a maths activity and a list of that week’s spellings. This will be set on a Tuesday and due the following Tuesday. In addition to this, you need to be practising your spellings and times tables at home regularly. You can do this through accessing Hit the Button, or TTRS. Our Spelling Test is on a Friday, and you can access these spellings on the school website or through the weekly sheets in your Homework books. Don’t forget that you need to be reading regularly at home as well - for at least 20 minutes, 3 times a week. You might wish to share a story with a sibling or an adult. Please ensure that reading records are sent into school each day so the adults in school can sign them.
Thank you for visiting our Class Page and we look forward to the challenges that Year 5 brings!
