Year 5

Welcome to Year 5

 

My name is Mrs. Jolly and I am the class teacher for Year 5. In Key Stage 2, we are so lucky to have support from Ms Conroy, Mr Thomson and Mrs. Lawton.

Year 5 is an exciting and challenging year for the children. In Upper Key Stage 2, children are expected to take a more mature and independent approach towards learning. These skills are developed throughout the year during a variety of tasks and lessons and provide the key foundations that prepare our children for the challenges of year 6.  

This year, your child will enjoy a wide and varied range of lessons. Our Wider Curriculum topics include: Vikings and Anglo Saxons, Tudors and Life in the Alps. Our Science will see them journeying further afield into OUTER SPACE - but don't worry, they'll be back for home time! In Maths, they will continue to develop their skills in number, shape and measures and use them to solve real life problems. In Music, the children will be learning to play the ukulele, as well as improving their singing and percussion skills. 

Our P.E. sessions will be held on Thursday afternoon (from the second half of the Autumn term), so please ensure that your child comes into school in their kit on that day. 

Please call in after school should you have any questions or concerns about your child's learning.

ADDITIONAL TASKS

Hello everyone! 

I have added some activities to our Year 5 page if you need them in case of absence, school closure or you just want more work to do at home!

Keeping your minds and bodies active in any way that you can will be great. Keep practising those times tables too. 

Visit White Rose Maths (some units are free) and complete any units you wish - I recommend that you concentrate on areas you feel you need to work on. 

No need to print anything; just work like we do in school, using the screen as if it were a textbook  https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-5/
