Welcome to Year 5
Welcome to Year Five! I am delighted to have my new class all back in school together again. I have been very impressed with how well the children have started the year and how focused they have been. Year Five is a very special year as the children are now in Upper Key Stage 2. It is always wonderful to see how the children grow in independence during this year and take on responsibilities in a mature way.
You will find attached below a 'Welcome to Year 5 letter' with the main organisational details. There is also a curriculum leaflet that outlines what the children wil be learning this term.
In the event of your child having to self-isolate, please use the information and resources below to support their learning at home.

Daily Essentials
- Reading - Please continue to read each day, both aloud to an adult and to yourself. Try to read different genres and texts that challenge you. Regularly discuss what you are reading with an adult and ask questions. Look up words that you do not know in a dictionary. https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/
