Welcome to 5S

Miss Stevens is your class teacher. 

We have lots of very exciting learning opportunities planned throughout the year.

Here you will be able to read and find out about all of the different things that we get up to in Year 5. 

Homework

Homework is set each Friday on Century AI and should be completed by the following Tuesday. Logins can be found in your child's reading records.

Spellings will be sent home each Friday, for the spelling test the following week.

Remember, 3 Dojos are awarded for each completed homework! 

Reading

Please send reading bags into school every day so we can ensure your child has an appropriate book to support their comprehension and fluency.

We encourage reading every night to support your child’s learning. When your child reads, record and sign this in their reading record. A reading superstar stamp and 3 Dojos will be given to every child that has read at least five nights every week for 10 minutes. Reading records will be monitored each Friday.

Pupils are invited to complete an Accelerated Reader Quiz each time they finish a book. As well as physical books borrowed from school pupils can log in to the Liverpool Library (free to register: https://liverpool.overdrive.com/library/kids) to read a selection of  E-Books from home.

Your support with reading is greatly appreciated! 

PE

For Autumn term 1, year 5 will have PE on Wednesday afternoons. On Wednesday, your child can wear their PE kit to come to school. Kits must be in accordance with school our uniform. Please label PE kits and water bottles to prevent items getting lost.

If you are informed that our class is scheduled for swimming lessons:

- Swimming caps are required to enter the pool. 

- Goggles are advised for your child's comfort in the water.

Other queries

If you have any questions, I am available for you to speak to at the end of the school day or please ring the school office and I will return your call as soon as possible.

Thank you,

Miss Stevens
