WELCOME TO YEAR 5

Over the next year we will making the most of our time at school, and you can see some of our learning highlights on our blog.  We also put a lot of our learning onto Seesaw, which means our families at home can see what we have been getting up to in school.

There are two Year 5 classes at Tudor:

5W- is taught by Mr Harvey and assisted by Mrs Hayes and Mrs Ross.

Every week, 5W is taught by Mrs Rafiq-Craske for an afternoon and Mr Higgins for a morning.

5X- is taught by Mrs Mckenzie and assisted by Mrs Burall-Stillman, and Miss Hughes.

Every week, 5X is taught by Mr Higgins for one morning.

PE DAYS

HOMEWORK:

In Year 5 we expect children to read every night and have their reading records signed by an adult. We also will be setting weekly tasks including spelling, maths and comprehension. 

Homework will be given out on Thursdays and will be due in the following Wednesday.

 

Spring Theme – It's all Greek to me!

You ‘Odyssey’ (ought to see) this … Year 5 are going a bit Greek this term!

We’ll be covering questions such as:

Who were the Ancient Greeks?

What did they believe in?

What was life like in Athens and Sparta?

What was the Trojan Horse?

How did the Ancient Greeks change the world?

What were the Olympic Games like back then?

And…

Where in the world was Ancient Greece?

How did myths and legends shape Greek culture?

What artefacts from the Ancient Greeks are still around today?

 

This summer term, we will be exploring these questions and many more as we dive into the fascinating world of the Ancient Greeks!

 

 

 

For more details about our different subjects, please check the overview at the bottom of this page.

Also, do keep an eye on our blog (which we aim to update weekly) for all our exciting learning!
