Y5 Chaffinches

I would like to warmly welcome you to the Y5 Chaffinches web page. This year we will aim to offer lots of fun learning and provide an engaging curriculum. As well as Literacy, Numeracy and Science, we place huge emphasis on the wider curriculum. This academic year, our underlying topic throughout the year is based upon ‘All about me’. This PHSE theme will aim to develop children’s confidence and relationships with others.
Children in Y5 Chaffinches will be rewarded with house points for being ‘Mansel learners’ and can earn raffle tickets for working above and beyond of what is expected of them. These can be exchanged for prizes throughout the year.
Reading
We strongly encourage lots of short burst reading sessions at home. Children will be rewarded 1 house point per reading session at home. Make sure your children record this in their reading diary.
Maths
We expect children to learn their times tables at home as this will help them in many mathematical areas.
Spelling
Y5 children will be given weekly spellings to learn and will have a test every Friday.
PE
This term we will be learning new football skills (outside) taught by Mr Johnson and indoor athletics with Mr Lavender. Please ensure that children have suitable footwear and their full PE kit on these days. Our PE days are on Tuesday and Thursday.
Stationary
If you choose to bring a pencil case to school, please only bring one into school and remember that your workspace on the desk is limited. As you know, school will provide handwriting pens, pencils and rulers for you to use, as well as felt tips, pencil crayons etc
If you have any other queries, please don’t hesitate to ask any of our team. We look forward to sharing some of their learning with you very soon on Twitter. You can follow us at:
