This term the writing will be inspired by the book ‘King Kong’ by Anthony Browne. The focus writing tasks will be a dilemma narrative and a balanced argument.

The children will be continuing to work on their grammar and punctuation knowledge and applying it in their daily writing. Some of the areas that we will focus on are: using parenthesis, the use of a dash to mark boundaries between independent clauses, relative clauses, direct and undirect speech, and present perfect and present perfect progressive tense.

In spelling, we use the Headstart Primary scheme. The words for each week are on a document attached below.

Set 1: week beginning 17.4.23

Set 2: week beginning 15.5.23

Set 3: week beginning 19.6.23

 

In our reading lessons, we focus on the reading skills required to help the children improve their understanding of texts. Each lesson works on the different skills required to become a successful reader including making sure the text makes sense, making predictions, retrieve and record information, identify facts and opinions and looking at the author’s use of language. These are the books we are looking at this term in our reading lessons:

In R.E., the two units for this term are Discipleship and Other World Religions. The key questions are:

How important is the new covenant to Christians?

How does a mosque show that the idea of one community is important to Muslims?

How does the Hindu celebration of Divali show their understanding of God?

Reading at Home

 

 Reading with your child is very important as it helps them develop their learning in all areas of the curriculum.

Talking with your child and asking them questions about their reading book will enhance their comprehension skills. Suggested questions are inside the reading record book and in the information booklet below.

The home reading reward scheme will continue again this term. The children in Year 5 will be rewarded for every 5 books that they read. The reading record books must be signed by an adult to count.

Thank you for your support.
