Week 3 – Recap

Highlights:
The best week by far!!! The class have put 100% into everything. After reading the children’s settings descriptions last week it is safe to say I was completely blown away with the quality!! We also learnt some more about the Tudors and what type of punishments they would have received back in Tudors times! This was an amazing lesson with the children and they produced some great diary entries as though they were a prisoner from the Tudor times!

What’s happening next week:
Over the next few weeks year 5 will be about the children settling in, I want to make the classroom feel a comfortable and safe environment for the children and a place they enjoy coming. I want to ensure the children are learning every single day with a smile on their face. The children are continuing with their topic of the Tudors which they are loving!
Our P.E slots this week are Monday and Thursday so if they can please come in P.E kit these days.

Class Focus: Presentation! As a class we are focusing on the presentation of our works in our books. If the children get any spare time at all if they could practice their joint up handwriting.

THE LAST WEEK!!!!

First of all I would like to say a huge thank you to year 5. The class have been absolutely amazing and have made me laugh and smile more than I could ever imagine. Some of the memories we have made over the last 12 months I hope we will remember for a very long time, such as, Lemon face, never winning an argument and lets not forget the most important memory, residential.

This class will always have a special place in my heart as they are my first ever class as a teacher, they have made this year perfect for me in every way possible. I would like to wish year 5 a great summer holidays and I hope it is filled with fun but stay safe!

Lastly, Good luck in year 6 you guys will absolutely smash it

Mr T

Week 36 – Recap

A work filled week for our year 5’s! Well done for the amount of effort you have put in! However unfortunately our reading score doesn’t reflect this with only 70%. Next week is our Design and Technology week where the children will be creating Mexican food dishes! These will all be available to buy at our summer fair on Friday next week!!

Our spellings have finished for the year so the Year 5’s do not have anything for this week.

Homework.

Can the children spend 20/25 minutes looking at recipes for a Mexican chilli dish, they need to understand the method, how to cook it and what they need to get prepared. This will help them next week when we are actually cooking the dish.

I would like 4 reads these need signatures! also at least 30 minutes on TT Rockstar’s before Wednesday.
