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.
Dear all,
After this wonderful, sunny day, please have a look at our timetable for the week ahead.
Remember:
- Our daily live-lessons are from 1:15 pm – 13:45 pm.
- On the other days in the morning, the teachers also kindly offer “Drop-in” / Support lessons where you can enter the virtual Google Meet classroom to get some help with your work.
- Regularly visit Google Classroom because assignments will be released as if we had normal lessons – so shortly before the beginning of the lesson.
We are so looking forward to seeing you all in our live-lessons and receiving your fabulous work.
Your Year 5 team.
Dear all,
Well done for your hard work in the first week of “lockdown”.
Please continue with a great focus and fantastic contributions. Have a look at the timetable for the week ahead.
We are incredibly excited as we are trying new things on Google Classroom and are using live-lessons more and more for a range of lessons.
On that topic, please remember that our live-lessons are ONLY for lesson & learning related contributions, not private chats. Also, please be aware that all contributions are shared with the school’s leadership team.
Have a fabulous start to the new week.
Your Year 5 team
