Class 4 Blog

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

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.

WOW!!!! 100% reading score and 99% attendance! just what class 4 needed! I asked for this and they delivered so a massive well done to year 5 for that!! As it is getting a lot closer to residential the class have been super excited! However they have still managed to keep their work heads on and have come back with the correct attitude this term.

As we are finalising their last term in year 5 I just want to congratulate them for the amount of work they have put in this year, it has been amazing!!

Another good week for year 5! However our reading score was really low with a score of 75%. Can we please push to get 100% on the last week of term please!

Next week is Art week for the children, if on Tuesday/Wednesday the children can bring a spare old top that would be amazing.

Another good week from Class 4 this week! Our reading percentage was up to 91%.

We have started our new English topic of story writing this week and the children have been focusing on our story ” little freak”. Class 4 have been coming up with their own ideas of how this film will end and the results are amazing!

Homework.

In English this week we have been finding out about different story endings. I would like the children to research each story ending and link this with a particular film/book. I would like the children to also explain how their chosen film/book fits in with this ending.

Here are the endings they need to focus on.

Resolved ending – All questions answered.
Unresolved ending – Most questions answered.
Unexpected ending – Catches the audience by surprise.
Cliff-hanger ending – No questions answered, leaves the audience not knowing.
Twist ending – The audience didn’t see this coming.
Tied Ending – It finishes where it starts.

I would like 4 reads and at least 30 minutes on TT Rockstar’s before Wednesday.

A good week for year 5 this week. We have started our new history topic which is Anglo-Saxons and the children loved it! Class 4 have really been putting in the effort this week and it hasn’t gone unnoticed by Mr. Trott, so well done! Our reading percentage this week however has taken a little bit of a hit at 79%.
