Year 5 News

 

Well done again to last week's Golden Star Ellie and to our special mentions. 

 

This week we had 12 children who got their technology smilies for accessing TTRS, Spelling Shed and Mathletics.  That's double last week's score.  Let's see if we can double it again!  We also had 19 children who entered the reading raffle on Thursday.  Well done to those children who are reading everyday.  Can we beat 19 next week?

This weekend, the children have a Mathletics activity that asks them to work with numbers to 1,000,000!  I see that 7 children have already completed the task.  Brilliant!  Remember, if children have a go at their homework over the weekend but have any problems, they can come and speak to me about it on Monday or Tuesday before it's due on Wednesday.  It's best not to leave it until Tuesday evening.

New spellings are on Spelling Shed (along with last week's so we don't forget them!) and we'd love it if everyone read.  There's no written English homework this week as it's a short week.

I hope everyone is looking forward to our first swimming lesson on Monday.  I won't be able to join the class but Mrs Bradbury will be there for anyone who is feeling a bit anxious.  Thanks to those of you who have returned the permission forms.  If you haven't done this, please make sure you send it back on Monday or pop into Reception on Monday morning.  If we don't have the form, your child will not be able to swim.  Children will need to make sure they have their kit and that they are not wearing any jewellery, including earrings.

Monday is photo day.  Bring your best smiles ready for the photographer!

And did you hear about our day with the fire service?  We found about all about what makes a good fire fighter and what the job entails before having a go ourselves.
