Welcome to Year 5!
Welcome to Year 5! We’re really looking forward to the challenges this year will bring.
Our class teacher is Mrs Seddon and our learning support assistant is Miss Broadbent.
In Year 5, our day starts at 8.45am. We have a break in the morning when we can buy fruit and milk from the Snack Trolley at 11:00. We have our lunch break at 12.15pm, when we play out until 12.45pm. We then eat our lunch and return to class at 1.00pm. Our day finishes at 3.15pm.
In writing this year, we will be studying a range of different writing genres based on a variety of videos, picture books and novels using The Write Stuff approach. We will also cover poetry. Our reading lessons will focus on using reading gems and continuing to develop our fluency. In maths, we will be using White Rose Maths alongside other materials to develop our mathematical skills.
Our wider curriculum will be taught in blocks throughout the year, please see the curriculum overview for more information. Our blocks will cover a range of wonderful topics such as World War 2, Anglo-Saxons/Vikings and Rainforests.
This year:
Swimming will take place on Fridays.
Music will take place on Monday afternoons.
PE will take place on Tuesday afternoons.
French will take place on alternate Friday afternoons.
Reading book bags will be given out and returned daily. Please take the time to read every day. Spellings will also be sent out weekly on a Monday.
We are very much looking forward to working with you all this year.
