AUTUMN TERM!
Our topic for this term is 'World War II'. We are excited to find out al about Winston Churchill and the impacts the war had on countires across Europe!
In Maths lessons this half term, we are going to check what we have remembered from last year, before we start looking at some place value. We will be learning about the place value of 6-digit numbers as well as ordering and comparing, and working with decimals.
In English, we will spend the first couple of weeks revising our writing skills from last year. We are also going to start some exciting new English lessons, where we practise a range of reading, writing and grammar skills. We begin by working on our sentence building skills, planning a sentence, remembering it to write down, and checking to make sure we have used all our correct punctuation - capital letters, finger spaces, full stops and a range of Year 5 grammar skills.
In Science, we are going to be learning about animals including humans. We will be recapping knowledge from previous years linked to vertebrates and invertebrates before moving on to look at the different life stages within humans and different species. Each week we will focus on a different area of working scientifically.
Homework
In upper KS2, homework is set in the form of a 'homework bingo'. One task is to be completed each week to your highest standard and you should make sure you have all of the materials needed.
Reading is extremely important and so this should be done as often as possible with diaries filled in, alongside your times tables scorecard for Maths - see your teacher if you are unsure about any of this.
In Hazel class, homework will be set on a Friday, and is due back by the following Wednesday.

Our PE days
Hazel class PE day is usually on a Monday. We also partake in Forest School on Wednesday afternoon for Creative Curriculum. On PE days, please come to school in your PE kit - a white or blue plain t-shirt, black or navy blue shorts, joggers or leggings, and sensible black trainers.
Children should have earrings removed in advance, and long hair should be tied back for safety.
On Wednesday, please bring your Forest School clothes in a separate bag with some wellies or suitable footwear.
