Year 5
Welcome to Year 5!
Well done for your first two weeks back at school following a 6 month break Year 5. You have all settled in extremely well, and you are impressing us all with your work ethic and listening to the new rules and systems in place.
Just a quick reminder about Monday: it is the most important day of the week for Year 5. Your reading logs (with 3 adults signatures) and spelling books must come into school, and you need to ensure your TTRS games are completed by 6pm on Sunday!

The Year 5 Team!
Isolation Work
Firstly, if you are having to unfortunately isolate, we hope that everyone is safe and healthy. Above, you will find 10 literacy and 10 maths activities to complete at home. These are not mandatory, but we would like you to continue with school work where possible, so that you don't fall behind with your learning. You also have access to Bug Club, Purple Mash, Timestable Rockstars and My Maths. If you need anything else, please contact your class teacher on you class email address.
Meet the Teacher and Curriculum Overview
Unfortunately, due to current Covid-19 restrictions, we cannot hold our usual Meet the Teacher session. Instead, below is a PowerPoint explaining all the key areas of Year 5 and an overview of the curriculum covered this half term. Over the new few weeks, teachers will be calling to introduce themselves and having a brief conversation about how your child has settled in to Year 5.
Just as a reminder: Monday is a very important day in Year 5.
On this day, we visit the library, carry out spelling tests and reset TTRS home learning.
It is imperative that your child/children bring in their Home Reading Logs (with a minimum of 3 signed reads), their spelling book ready for their new set of spellings and that TTRS has been completed.
Thank you in advanced for your support in this. If you have any other general questions, please use the class email addresses on the website.
Spellings - week 2 : 21.09.2020

A Weekly Timetable in Year 5
An example of the weekly timetable in a Year 5 classroom. Currently, due to government guidance, we only use certain parts of the school or certain days. Below, you will see when Silver Birch have computing, geography, science and other subject through the week. These will stay the same until half-term.
