Year 5 – Friday 24th April

Good Morning Year 5!

WOW it’s Friday already! The first week back after the Easter holidays has gone so quickly. Here’s a little poem that we wrote to show you how much we care and hopefully make you smile!

You are all simply amazing,

Each of you trying your best

All of you working hard

Reading, writing, maths and the rest.

Finding reasons to smile.

It’s hard when we miss your faces,

Very proud we are of our three classes,

Everyone of you in different places.

Remember the words of our school song. We are growing and learning together… just in a different way right now!

It’s that time again year 5!!! We have another TT Rockstars battle with Year 4!! Today between 9am and 3pm we will be battling Year 4 again. Last time we battled we won, so lets make that happen again. Even if you can only get on for 10 minutes, please do – help us to beat year 4 again!

Thank you for sending in your descriptive writing and your art from yesterday. We were amazed by the amount of effort and detail included, they were fantastic. Please keep sending them in for us to look at.

Some of the teachers have created a Worship for this week. If you would like you access the worship, click here.

Exciting news for 5F! The long awaited Zoom video call has been scheduled for Monday 27th April at 10:30am. Miss Fowler is really looking forward to seeing as many members of 5F as she can. Your parents should have an email with details of how to log in for the chat. We will be completing a true or false European Countries quiz. For this you will need a piece of paper with true written on one side and false written on the other side (if you can’t then thumbs up and down will work too!). Miss Fowler is really looking forward to catching up.

We hope you have a wonderful weekend, enjoy your break from working and make the most of the time you can go outside and enjoying yourself. Remember to stay positive.

Good Morning Year 5!

We hope you had a fantastic day yesterday and are ready for another day of learning. Have you been keeping active? Us teachers are keeping active with walks, home workouts, bike rides and we hope you are too.

There are some pictures below, look carefully and see what you can spot. Have another look at the sly tonight to see what you can see.

Thank you again for sending in all the photos of your amazing work. It’s lovely to see everyone’s hard work. We were especially proud of all your blackout poetry. You were all amazingly creative and the results were lovely. Well done Year 5! Please keep sending them in to year5@stmarksce.org.uk – we love looking at them.

Year 5 – Tuesday 21st April

Good Morning Year 5!

We hope you slept well and that you have woken up with a smile. The sunshine yesterday was lovely, we hoped that you managed to get some fresh air and we are keeping our fingers crossed that it continues to shine and cheer up our days.

Just a reminder that Miss Goddard has set up a page with some Maths challenges for you to have a go at if you would like to. Click here to go to the web page. There will be a new challenge everyday, Monday to Friday, with three levels of challenge so that children in Key Stage 1 and 2 can access these, so please look carefully at which challenge suits you best. These Mathematical challenges will require thinking, problem solving and investigative skills. Please remember that these are additional tasks which are not necessarily related to what we are learning in our year group so please ensure that you have completed our task first so that it is done.

At the bottom of this post is the spelling list for this week. I am sorry this didn’t come out to you yesterday, but I must have still had my Easter holiday brain on. They are also on Spelling Shed for you to practise there as well.

Thank you for sending pictures of your visual dictionaries – we LOVED looking at them. They were all beautiful, but unfortunately we couldn’t show them all, but loved looking at all of them.

Keep up all your hard work!

Miss Thomas and the Year 5 Team

Good Morning Year 5

Welcome to the Summer Term!! We hope you all had a fantastic Easter Break and were able to relax and have a break – with a bit of chocolate too. Although we can’t be all together, we are thinking about you and missing you and hoping that we all get to head back to school as soon as we can. The year 5 teachers have been enjoying the sunshine over the last two weeks, making the most of the time outside.

We will be thinking about the physical features, human features, the weather and then how this island compares to the UK.

Similar to before the Easter holidays, we will be posting your jobs for the day on here for you to work through at your own pace. Just a reminder that these can be done whenever you can. Try your best to complete them in, but don ‘t worry if you are struggling, leave it and come back to it when you can. Please keep in touch by emailing year5@stmarksce.org.uk with your pictures, questions and requests – we love to hear from you.
