Welcome to Oak Class!

Class Teacher: Louise Dickinson

LSA: Mrs Lemery

LSA: Mrs. Roe

We will be using this class page to share important information with parents and carers but also for the children to celebrate their learning.

This year, we will be developing our skills through practical activities and collaborative projects as well as showing what we can do independently. We will learn with our friends whilst understanding how we learn best and what support we need.

We will treat our classmates with respect and model the school’s value around the school. We have a new and comfortable reading corner in class, with books that the children have requested, so we hope to create a love of reading as well as encouraging children to try a wide range of books. Children will read daily and also be read to through a range of independent reading, guided reading, literacy and storytime activities.

Oak class will have PE on Wednesday and are asked to wear their PE kit to school.

Homework:

Children should read daily for at least 20 minutes. Please record your child’s reading in their home/school diary. Reading diaries will be collected daily so please sign your child’s diary when you read with them.

Spellings will be live on Spelling Frame on Tuesdays. They will find it beneficial to practise their spellings regularly (if possible, for 10 minutes daily).

Maths practice is available on IXL. Children are expected to spend at least 30 minutes a week on their Maths homework.

If you have any questions about Year 5 or would like to book a meeting with me, please contact me via the school office.
