Welcome

Welcome to Year 5!

Year 5 is located around the upstairs hall.  Year 5 is an extremely exciting year as we are able to learn about lots of new things.

In terms 1 and 2, Year 5 will be learning all about life for the Mayans. At the end of this unit we will be creating a Mayan market place in the playground to sell our marvellous Mayan creations. 
 

We will also be learning musical instruments, honing our drawing techniques and mastering building in DT.  What a busy year it will be!

For Maths, we will continue to support children in building their confidence so that they can apply maths in the real world.  They will be covering all curriculum objectives and will also be challenged to develop their problem solving skills.

English will also expose them to a range of writing genres and we will support them in using a range of grammatical features as well as developing their skills to edit and revise their work. 

Reading is essential and we will support children in developing their decoding and inference skills.  Most importantly, we allow the children to explore a wide range of texts to encourage and support their love of reading!

We hope that they will leave Year 5 confident, happy learners that embody all of our school values.
