Welcome to Year 5
The teachers in Year 5 are Mrs Taft (Class 7), Mr Hartley (Class 8 and Year Leader) and Mr Harber (Class 9).
We also have teaching assistants who will be working in the year group - Miss Biles, Mrs Togwell, Miss Grant-Berry, Ms Green and Miss Evans.
Homework
During the week we will set homework - these will be reading, maths and spellings. All will be set on Google Classroom. The maths homework will be linked to their times tables using the TT rockstars website. The children will be asked to learn 3 words each week off the year 5/6 list of spellings. We also request that your children read for at least 3 times a week and that at times, they are listened to by an adult who then can ask them questions about what they have read. A reading task will be set each week too.
The homework will all be set on a Thursday and then due back in on the following Tuesday. As we are trying to develop the independence of the children it will be their responsibility to complete their work on time.
PE
PE days will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
We ask children bring their kit to school on a Monday, then go home in their kit and bring it back to school for the Thursday PE session.
