Year 5
Welcome to Year 5!
Mr LeLuan is your teacher this academic year and will be assisted by Mrs Talati and Mrs O'Connor. Miss Patel will be teaching the class on Monday and Wednesday afternoons.
This web page is to help with your learning and please use the categories below to access useful websites, games and to see some of our great work.
English, Maths and Reading will be taught daily as part of a full curriculum. To see what your children are doing in class please take a look at the topic web part of the class page.
Children will be responsible for selecting their own reading books and writing the titles in their reading records. Parents and guardians, please sign and date to show that your child has read at home. This will be checked and signed daily.
Children are expected to use TT Rockstars from home (if they have access). This has been a great success and children throughout the school have made good progress in learning their times tables.
Yoga will be on Wednesday afternoons and P.E. will take place on Thursday mornings, the correct kits should be in school on these days. PE kit needs to remain at school and taken home every half term for washing unless it has become very dirty.
Weekly homework will be set on a Thursday. This will need to be completed online. If people have no access to the internet a paper version will be provided. Weekly spellings will be handed out on a Thursday and tested on the following Friday.
