Welcome to
5R - The Munchkins
Miss Rawnsley and Miss Smith
Welcome to 5R!
In 5R we endeavor to engage with the Year 5 curriculum whilst encouraging resilience, self-management, reflection, resourcefulness and independence to allow us to underpin the school values which we abide by daily;
ENJOY, RESPECT, SUCCEED.
Reading
Children will have a reading book chosen by themselves appropriate to their reading level. Accompanying these books are their reading diaries, where you can write comments on their reading daily. Your child will also be given many opportunities throughout the week to read a variety of texts and will then undertake an online quiz to assess their understanding of the text.
PPA Time
Miss Kausor will be teaching 5R on a Wednesday morning and afternoon.
Homework
In Year 5, children are expected to complete two pieces of homework a week. The children will need to practice their spellings and log in to TT rock stars weekly.
Spellings and Times Tables
Every week, children will have a spelling and time table test on Friday morning. These will be provided for the children the previous Friday and practiced in school during the week.
PE
PE will take place every Monday (indoor) and Thursday (outdoor).
Please make sure children have the correct PE kit ready for each week.
SNACK
Children are provided with a piece of fruit every day in KS2. We also encourage your child to bring a bottle of water to drink in class throughout the day.
