Welcome to Class 4

Welcome to Class 4.

This is the class page for Year 5. 

PE

Children in Class 4  have PE every Monday and Thursday.

Children will need to come to school in PE kit on these days.  

Ear rings must be removed for PE. 

Reading books

Children will read in class every day. Please ensure they bring their reading book and reading diary into school every day.

 Please support your child’s reading development by reading regularly with them at home. As your child becomes more independent in reading, they may not wish to read with you. Instead you could ask them to tell you about what they have read and ask them some questions about it to develop their comprehension skills. This can still be recorded in their reading diaries.

Once children are confident, competent readers, they can begin to choose their own books to read. This is aimed at developing their love of reading. By choosing books from a range of authors and genres, children will hopefully begin to read for pleasure.

Homework

Children will be given new spellings every Monday and tested on them on a Friday.

Children are encouraged to use Spelling Shed regularly at home to do this.

Children will also be expected to continue learning and practising their times tables which they can do using and Timestable Rockstars.
Rapid recall of times table facts is important for many aspects of mathematics.
