Hello Everyone,

We hope you enjoyed the Easter Break and have re-charged your energy levels ready to be fully motivated in the Summer term.

In class, we will be continuing to focus on key skills and need full attendance from everyone. In year 5, we are using the 8.30 till 8.55 slot to practice key skills – please make the effort not to miss these sessions.

Year 5 will have 2 P.E. lessons a week on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Please ensure your children come to school in their P.E. kit.

Their P.E. kit must be plain grey, green or black.

Spelling – Children will be given their new spellings and tested on a Tuesday.

Homework

Reading -We expect the children to read at least 10 pages of their book every night, more at the weekend.

Times tables – Knowing your times tables for instant recall is essential in many maths operations. Therefore, we ask the children to practise their tables every night using TTRockstars or Hit the Button, or writing lists of Tables.

Spellings – practice the rule every night.

English- at times we will give out English tasks – aiming to improve writing ability.

Weekend Homework.

On a Friday the children will have an English and Maths task, they may have a science task. In addition, they will be expected to read, learn their tables and practice their spellings.
