Year 5 2022 - 2023

Welcome to Year 5!

We are so excited to welcome children and carers back to Plymouth Grove after the school holidays.

This year our Year 5 class teachers are Mrs Steward (5S), Miss Driscoll (5D) and Mr Fox.

We are a rights respecting school. All children have the right to learn, and we will be doing lots of amazing learning together this year. For more details, please have a look through the curriculum information on our website.

Things to remember:

• PE lessons are every Wednesday.  Please send your child to school in their PE kit.
• We use Seesaw as a way to communicate with parents and carers. If you need to speak to us in-person, please send us a message or ask us at the end of the day.
• Make sure your child is bringing their reading book into school everyday, so they can read at school and complete an Accelerated Reader quiz. 

Homework:

• Reading: Children should be reading for 20-30 minutes every day. We check this using Accelerated Reader.
• Spellings: Children have a spelling test every Friday and are given new spellings for the following week. They should be learning these at home.
• Maths: Children are set homework on Edshed, which is checked on a Friday.
• Times Tables: Practice at home using TT Rockstars. Times Tables will be tested once a week in school.
