Year 5

Welcome to Year 5

Our class saints are St Bernadette and St Pius X

Year 5

Homework:

Each week children will need to complete:

One English task

and

One Maths task

This will either be in their homework books or on Literacy Planet or Mathletics.

Homework will be given out on a Thursday or Friday and will be collected in on a Wednesday.

Children will be expected to learn a set of ten spellings each week. They will need to write each of these spelling three times.

Then they will need to write a sentence to show their understanding of the words.

As an extension of the task for spelling, children can find three new interesting words they have come across that week and add them to their list of words to practise.

Reading:

Children will be expected to read every day.

Parents will be asked to comment in their blue Home Reader Record at least three times each week.

PE

Children in year 5 will take part in PE every Monday and Friday. Please ensure they have the correct clothing/kit for this.

Children will be taken swimming in small groups throughout the year. Mr Perkins will send a letter home when your child has been selected. If your child has been chosen to complete their swimming this half term, please ensure they have the correct clothing for this too. Swimming is on a Friday.
