  • Teaching Assistant: Mrs Henderson
Miss Fenn – Year 5 Teacher
Mrs Henderson – Year 5 Teaching Assistant

Welcome to Year 5 during these unprecedented times.

Miss Fenn will be your child’s class teacher this year.  Mrs Henderson, year 5’s Teaching Assistant will support the teaching and learning in Year 5.

Reading

It is essential that children read their Accelerated Reading book every night to ensure that they pass the book quiz. However, because the children are in upper Key Stage 2, they do not need to read out loud to an adult. It is recommended by the Accelerated Reading scheme that to ensure maximum progression in reading, children should read for at least 25 minutes per night (feel free to read more!). Everyone should bring in their Accelerated Reading book to school every day. There will be sanctions if children have not read each night, which will be to read for some of their playtime/lunchtime to catch up the required 25mins. To encourage the children to read, there will be opportunities to celebrate and reward reading with treats, rewards and prizes.

Homework

Homework will be provided on Seesaw each Friday and must be completed and saved by the following Thursday. This will give you the opportunity to complete it at a convenient time. If your child is unable to access the online homework, a slot during the school week will be allocated to allow them to complete it in school.
Any incomplete homework must be completed in ‘Golden Time’ on a Friday afternoon.

 

PE

In the autumn term PE will take place on a Thursday afternoon with Mr Littlefair. Your child should wear their PE kit to school on this day in preparation for this session.
Willington Primary School’s PE Uniform consists of:

o Pair of shorts/ jogging bottoms/leggings
o T-shirt and hoody/tracksuit top etc
o Black plimsolls or trainers

As the children will be doing physical activity, please make sure they wear appropriate clothing – no jeans, shoes, boots, flip-flops, crop tops/ belly tops, jewellery etc

 

Class Do Jo

We have ‘graduated’ the children from the Year 4 Class Do Jo and onto the Year 5 Class Do Jo. If you are already signed up to Do Jo, you do not need to do anything. However, if you haven’t been part of the Class Do Jo system in the past, this is a great way to see how your child is doing in class as they receive Do Jo points for good behaviour and working hard. There will also be photographs of what the children are doing in class, which gives you a glimpse of what they have been up to at school. It is also a great messaging tool for Miss Fenn and you! Miss Fenn can send reminders etc and you can ask questions about anything; forgotten information, clarification, arrange to see Miss Fenn etc. Please ask for an information sheet on how to access this.

If you have any concerns or questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to an enjoyable and successful year!

Long Term Plans

The long term plan provides an overview of each year group’s curriculum by subject. The long term plans may alter slightly as the year progresses as we evaluate and refine our curriculum to ensure it best meets the needs of our children. If you would like more detailed information about a particular subject, please go to the Curriculum section of our website
