Year 5
Welcome to Year 5
Hi Everyone!
We hope you've all had a lovely Easter break and are refreshed and ready to come back!
Spellings are now up on the website. They are words that we have previously done as we have already completed all of the statutory spellings for year 5/6. However, this time we will be testing them using dictations.

Homework
There are new, weekly homework sets for you to complete. These contain both Maths and English questions and should be done one week at a time, as directed on the sheets.
The work can be completed in the homework books that have gone home already and these should be brought back every Friday.
We would still like you to be practicing times tables and spellings as much as possible, as well as reading too.
