Year 5
Welcome to Year 5!
The Year Five Teachers are:
Mr Emmett (5E)
Mrs Chapman (5C)
Clarinets need to be brought to school on Thursday.
P.E takes place on Thursday afternoon.
Please come to school wearing your P.E kit.
Homework will be set on Friday and should be brought in on the following Tuesday.
Your child will usually bring home a spelling or grammar activity and times tables or arithmetic practice. The purpose of the homework is to retrieve and revisit skills they have already learnt that week in class.
Reading - please bring your yellow reading record every day.
Please read with your child for at least 15 minutes as many nights a week as you can! Reading aloud to or with an adult makes a real difference to your child's reading fluency. Each child should now have a yellow book in which to record their book choices.

Science
In science, we were investigating which objects were the hardest, out of a given selection. We then investigated further, using a scratch test, looking at the scratch through magnifying glasses to decide if it was deep or shallow, long or short, and then whether this meant soft or hard. Some of our initial ideas changed as a result. For example, a candle was thought to be hard as it was difficult to snap, but the scratch test suggested that it was also soft as the scratch was long and deep, with shavings coming off.
