Year 5 have had a really hard week this week. Year 5 have been focusing on working more independently and trying to use resilience to answer their questions. This is a task that is naturally very hard to do for a year 5 class but these guys have given it their all, this is something we will be focusing more on in year 5 but for their very first week they have impressed me. The class have started their new guided reading text “Boy at the back of the class” this is a text that is quite challenging for year 5 but they have shown a real interest and are already heavily invested.

What’s happening next week:
Our P.E slots this week are Monday and Thursday so if they can please come in P.E kit these days.

Class Focus: 

Resilience! I would like the children to focus on trying to work independently, this means trying their best to find an answer or figure something out before coming to an adult. This is very tricky to do so this will be a focus for a while.

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. Fractions, I would love for the children to be practicing their fractions. As we all know these are a tricky topic and any extra work would go a mile!
Class 4’s focus this week is to keep up the hard work, get used to being in class 4 and get to grips with everything. I would like 4 reads these need signatures! also at least 30 minutes on TT Rockstar’s Per week.
