Year 5 2024 - 2025

Welcome to Upper Key Stage 2, Year 5. The teachers are Mrs Beer and Mrs Davies and the Teaching Assistant is Miss Robinson. In our classroom, the children thrive from the challenges set before them and work tremendously hard to achieve the best they can all do individually. We have a huge range of skills between us and love to share and support each other in all aspects of our school life. We have a fantastic philosophy to ensure all of our peers achieve as much as possible.

Our timetable consists of daily Maths, English and S.P.A.G. lessons followed by the foundation subjects. Each term we cover a different humanities journey from our three topics: Romans, Aztecs and The Maya. Our spelling focus changes each week and the children learn the rules during weekly S.P.A.G. lessons before a test on Wednesdays. Reading is very important to us and we encourage the children to read either their school reading book or a book they are enjoying at home.  We encourage children to learn their number facts and times tables and would appreciate support with this at home. There is also the opportunity for children to extend their knowledge through self-guided activities at home set on our ‘Purplemash’ platform.  Our PE session is on Wednesday morning with Mr Edwards.  Please could your child come to school in their trainers on Wednesday or keep a pair in school with their kit.

If you would like any more information, please do not hesitate to contact school for an appointment.
