Class Dojo

News and updates are posted for parents/carers on our Year 5 Class Dojo page. If you don't currently have a login, please speak to Mr Higham.

 

PE

In Year 5, we have PE every Friday. Please ensure children come to school in their PE kits on this day every week.

PE kits should be a plain white top, plain dark shorts or joggers and dark trainers. School jumpers or cardigans can be worn over the top.

 

During the autumn term, Year 5 will be going swimming on a Thursday. Please ensure children come to school with their swimming trunks/costume on under their uniform, with everything else they need in a swimming bag (towel, underwear, swimming cap and goggles).

 

Reading

We encourage children to read every day. Children have a home reading book carefully matched to their level of fluency and understanding. It is important that children bring this book to school each day.

Once they have finished reading the book, please discuss the text with your child and explore any questions which are suggested in the book to help develop their comprehension skills.

Children also have access to our class library and school library. We spend 15 minutes every afternoon quiet reading for pleasure in class.

 

Here are some resources which may be of use at home as part of reading practice:

 

 

Spellings

 

Homework

Homework will be given out each Monday in the form of a Maths or English activity on 1 side of A4. Children will receive 2 'Homework Dojos' on the following Monday if they have completed it and brought it back in.
