Class 5

Welcome back everybody; I hope you all had a lovely Easter holiday with your friends and families and enjoyed all the lovely sunshine we had on offer! Me and Mrs Toase are both very excited about welcoming you all back for the summer term. Our history unit for this half term is The British Empire – location history. We will look at the empire in detail, and consider what made it so large, making Great Britain the world power of the time.  Our geography unit for the second half term will be about the impact of humans on polar environments. We will be studying ice biomes to investigate how global warming has impacted our world. In science, for the second half term, we will be studying light.   Below, the knowledge organisers summarises what we will be learning about.

We have 2 PE afternoons this term. These will be on Thursday and Friday for us. As usual, children will come into school in their PE kits please. 

Homework will be set on Fridays, and it will include spellings, some maths questions based on  the week's learning and reading. We are expecting each child to read 8 times over a two week period, and these need to be recorded in their diaries. Homework is due on Wednesday, with the spelling and times tables test taking place on the Friday of that week. 

We look forward to seeing all of you back in school for the new term!

Mr Teuchmann and Mrs Toase
