Year 5 2026 - 2027

Welcome to Year 5!

Class Teacher - Mr Beech

Teaching Assistants - Mrs Savage and Mrs Bowen

Year 5 is such a wonderful year! It is the start of upper key stage two and there will be lots of new learning introduced this year as we get prepared for Year 6. The children will be stretched and challenged to achieve what they are capable of and will always be pushed to do their best. We will cover topics that range from Earth and Space, Ancient Greece, the Amazon Rainforest, to preparing healthy meal; there is a real variety of different learning opportunities available to the children this year. We are really looking forward to tackling each new challenge and doing our best. 

Keep checking in to catch up with what the children are doing throughout the year as we will be updating our page regularly.

Homework

Homework will be given out every Friday and returned by the following Friday. Homework consists of a piece of Maths, which focuses on the current topic we are learning and our weekly spellings. Every Friday, Year 5 complete a spelling test on the spelling rules they have learned that week. Children are expected to read their school reading book daily to an adult and record this in their reading diary, at least three times per week. Additional reading of choice may also be recorded in the reading diary. Reading diaries should be brought into school daily. It will also benefit children to be completing at least 10 minutes per day on Times Tables Rockstars (TTRS).
