Welcome to London Bridge Class
Class Teacher: Miss S. Winser (Howard’s Curriculum Lead)
Teaching Assistant: Mrs R. Verma
Homework:
Handed out on Fridays,
Returned by Wednesday,
Please remember that homework is an important building stone in the child’s learning and development. The children will receive Dojo-Points for completed homework as well as particularly outstanding contributions.
Daily Reading:
To help further develop the children’s reading and academic development, please support and encourage the children to read daily for at least 10 minutes. This daily reading should then be recorded (title + pages) in the Learning Diary. We would kindly ask parents to sign/initial the record.
The children will receive Dojo-Points for daily reading.
Recommended reading books for Year 5:
Best Books for Year 5 | Ages 9-10 | BooksForTopics
Expertly selected books for 9 and 10 year old children (lovereading4kids.co.uk)
Reading Activities:
Once the children have completed reading a book, they then choose an activity related to the book (e.g. book-review, letter to the author, sequel, character profile, alternative cover etc.). This activity is completed in the child’s Reading Journal. Our wonderful teaching assistants will then check, feedback and record the completion of these activities.
The children will receive multiple Dojo-Points to reward exceptional work.
PE:
Our current P.E. days are Tuesday and Wednesday with Miss Handley.
We are now starting our 5th week of online learning and every day we are amazed and impressed again and again by your fabulous commitment,
The week ahead has two different foci nationally, it is National Storytelling week as well as Children’s Mental Health week. Both of these aspects are so important in our lives and actually can be linked. So, a few exciting surprises will be waiting for you.
To help us “streamline“ our online learning, from this week on, we would very much like you to assist us by following these two little routines:
- When you complete an assignment on paper, please tell us. Simply write “Completed on Paper“ after opening the file/document/assignment. Also remember that you can send us your work as a picture like many of you are already doing.
- Use the “Help-Sessions“ more intensively for questions you have regarding your learning.
Here is our timetable for the week.
We are so grateful for your fabulous work over the last four weeks.
Keep showing us your greatest work and pride.
Your Year 5 adults.
Happy Monday to everyone,
We hope you had a wonderful weekend. There was even a little bit of white decoration falling out of the sky. We hope you enjoyed that. Isn’t it incredible how quickly this January has passed? At the end of the week, we already get to say goodbye to month that is often called “dreadful” by others.
As you know, there is another incredibly exciting week of learning waiting for you. Please check out the time-table below.
When going through the lessons, please make sure to follow the recorded lessons just as precisely as you do with the live-lessons. Pretend you were in class.
Enjoy your learning. We will see each-other in the live and help sessions.
Your Year 5 team
