Dear Parents and carers,
We hope that you have all had a restful and enjoyable Easter holiday! It is getting closer and closer to summer, and it is beautiful to see! It is our final term together as year 5 and one step closer to year 6. It is useful to use this final term to support their independence and allow the children to take ownership of themselves.
In each term, your child will be following exciting and engaging topics which are as follows:
Autumn term – where I’m from
Spring term – Islamic civilisation
Summer term – Anglo-Saxons and Vikings
In our Anglo-Saxon and Viking unit, we will explore the history of these two fascinating cultures, learning about their daily life, beliefs, and key events. We will study the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, their settlements, and the role of monasteries, alongside the Vikings, their voyages, settlements in Britain, and the impact of their raids. We will also investigate key historical figures like Alfred the Great and Viking leaders. Through this unit, we will gain an understanding of how the Anglo-Saxons and Vikings influenced modern Britain.
Reading
The children should be reading their book every evening for at least ten minutes. These can be any book from non-fiction, biographies, comics or fiction books. Please ensure your child records what they have read in their reading journal. We have been keeping a class chart and the children receive a tick when they have read four times in a week. The children who read four times a week will receive extra play time on a Friday afternoon.
Homework
The children should be reading four times per week, playing on TTRS four times a week and completing any homework sent home. Homework will be sent home on a Thursday and is due on a Thursday. This will also be accessible on google classroom and can be handed in that way. Children will receive spellings on a Friday at the start of a new half term to learn for every Friday.
Uniform
Please could you ensure that your child’s uniform, particularly jumpers, is all appropriately named, even if you simply write their initials on the label this will allow us to reunite them with their rightful owners!
P.E. Kits
Please ensure your child has a P.E. kit in school. PE days will be Monday and Thursday. Please make sure there are spare jumpers and/or long bottoms as we still go outdoors in the colder weathers.
Please do email me with any class related questions or information.
Kind regards,
Miss Knowles
