Year 5

Welcome to Year 5

The year 5 team consists of Mrs Nagra (5L) and Miss Brookes (5K) and our teaching assistants Mrs Nathwani, Mrs Grimstead and Mrs Reubens.

This half term, the children have started learning about the Groovy Greeks. We have begun our topic by looking at where Greece is in relation to the rest of Europe and the wider world.  The children will now find out about key city states within Greece and explore Zeus and his kingdom, looking at important Gods and Goddesses.   Keep an eye out for some creative writing and amazing art work linked to this topic.

Year 5 home learning tasks

We hope that everyone is keeping safe and well at home.

To support your child's learning, we have collated some home learning tasks to complete each week.  The writing task is progressive and we hope that all children work through the tasks one step at a time.  This will support the children as they build up to a final piece of extended writing.

We have also included some tasks to complete on Education City.  Children just need to log into their accounts and the tasks (5 English tasks, 5 maths tasks and 2 science tasks) will be ready for them to read through and complete.  These tasks will go live on the website from Monday until Sunday of the same week.  Teachers will be reviewing the tasks regularly to ensure that they are completed.

Thank you

Mrs Nagra and Miss Brookes

5L enjoyed dressing up as their favourite book character for World Book Day.  During the day, the children participated in a variety of activities linked to the short story, The Man with the Yellow Face written by Anthony Horowitz.
