Year 5 Sycamore Class 2017 - 2018

Miss Williams

Welcome to Year 5!

Miss Williams, Mrs Ablett & Mrs Yates!

I hope you find our class page useful and enjoy discovering all the new things we have learnt.

Summer term

During Summer 1, Sycamore Class will be studying a fiction text; Moon Dog.

We will be learning about Space and The Solar System. We will also be looking at climate zones around the world. Take a look at our learning journey to see what else we are up to!

We have PE on Tuesdays. Other opportunities may arise, so please ensure PE kits are in school every day.

Homework...

We have our new homework system in place! The system works on alternate weeks, on specific weeks the children will complete Mathletics tasks, set by myself, relating to the Maths we have worked on in class. On the other weeks, the children will be able to choose an activity from the 8 we have provided, to complete! These relate to our work in class, it could be creating an eBook, presentation, poem, or carrying out a Science investigation!

- Homework is given out every Friday which is due back on a Tuesday, at the latest.

- Reading at home should be done as frequently as possible. Children should bring their reading book and reading record to school every day and take them home each night. I will be checking their reading logs.

- Mathletics is updated regularly with tasks. Children know their login username and passwords but can check with me. They should login and complete their assigned tasks before progressing on to Live Mathletics...let's see how many points we can get! Click on the logo to go there now!

-Bug Club is an exciting online reading resource with interesting books and reading activities. Your child knows their password and how to use the different resources on there.
