Year 5 2017 - 2018
Miss Blake
Welcome to your first term in Year Five,
I hope you have all enjoyed the summer break and that you are ready to work hard this term! We have lots to learn and I am very excited about the topics that we will be covering over the year. There will be a huge focus upon times tables this half term; everybody must have quick recall of their times tables in and out of order.
PE
PE will be on a Wednesday and a Thursday afternoon. This term I will be teaching swimming on a Thursday and Miss Preugschat will be teaching all of our PE units on a Wednesday. You need to have a labelled PE kit in school at all times, which can be taken home to be washed over the weekend or half termly.
Homework, Spellings and Reading
Like last year, Learning Log homework and Maths will be given out on a Friday and returned on a Wednesday. Occasionally, we may give out a piece of homework that lasts for a longer period of time, such as a mini-project. Reading books need to be changed at least once a week and don’t forget to bring your Reading Journal and book in everyday, so that we can keep track of the books you are reading. You need to continue to learn your times tables at home as well as covering them in class. Finally, Spellings will be given out on a Thursday and will be tested on the following Thursday.
As well as me, we will have Mr Eisenberg with us during the morning sessions and Miss Evans throughout the day. In the afternoons, you will have the opportunity to work with Mr Manning and Mrs Edwards for some of the sessions.
