Year 5
Welcome to the Class 5 webpage! Here you will find your homework, spellings and information about all the exciting learning happening this year.
Year 5 have had a really busy and positive week. In maths, the children have been getting to grips with fractions. Some parts were tricky, but they showed great persistence and worked hard to overcome the challenges, we are really proud of their effort. I’ve also added some fraction questions that the children can practise at home. These include the steps they need to follow, so they can work through them confidently and you can easily support them if needed.
In PE, the children had lots of fun learning line dancing. They worked well together and learnt some great moves, which they’re very excited about. Hopefully you’ll get a performance at home!
In history, the children loved learning about the Ancient Greeks and had a brilliant debate about whether they would have preferred to live in Athens or Sparta. Ask them which one they would choose and why they had lots to say!
Finally, I will be checking reading records at the end of the week. Please ensure that children have a parent or carer’s signature by Friday to confirm that they have read on the days recorded in their reading log. Thank you for your continued support in encouraging regular reading at home.
