I hope you had a lovely summer break. Welcome to year 5! My name is Miss Steadman and I will be the class teacher this year. This is a welcome letter to you all.
Year 5 PE days are Monday and Thursday, so please can the children be sent into school in full school PE kit.
Homework will be handed out on Friday and be expected to be in on Thursday. There will be an English piece one week and then a maths piece the week after. I would like your child to be reading every night as well, this should be written in the reading records. As well as this, your child should be practising their spellings ready for a weekly spelling test.
Hopefully we can get some school trips booked soon.
This term we will be learning about:
| Literacy | Robot Girl, we will be learning all about AI and creating our own robot AI stories. |
