Year 5

Welcome to Year 5!

We hope that you enjoy looking at our year group web-page.

Below is a list of information regarding the current topic that we are studying. You will also find some useful links for spelling and times-table practice.

If you have anymore queries please ask Mr Talbot and Mrs Baines.

Our current curriculum topic (Autumn 1) is World War II!

In our English lessons, we are reading Goodnight Mister Tom so that our pupils can imagine what life was like during the war for a child. We have already enjoyed making their own evacuee labels and will be learning about The Blitz, rationing, other countries involved in the war and the impact of the war in different countries. We also have a fabulous trip to Coventry Cathedral planned for later on in the term (you will receive information about this before half term). 

Spelling and times-tables practice

We would like to thank all parents/ carers for their continued support with TT Rockstars and Spelling-shed. The children have been very enthusiastic and we have seen some great progress made already! Below are the links for both TT Rockstars and Spelling-shed.

Homework

Homework for Year 5 is currently as follows:

• Spelling practice using Spelling-shed.
• Times- tables practice using TT Rockstars.
• In addition to this, every half term the children will receive a homework activity sheet. From this, they can choose 5 activities which need to be completed by the last week of each half term.

The children will be tested on their times-tables and spellings every Friday.

Thank you for your continued support.
