Welcome to the Year 5 Noticeboard

 

Week beginning Mai 5ed/May 5th

 

A great week again at Sketty and Year 5. It was so lovely to see the children performing P-bones and cornets with the Swansea music service. Thank you to all those that were able to make it, we understand that it was quite a commitment at that time. This week we have been developing our performance for Primary Partners in the Grand on June 12th. We are really looking forward to this, so make sure you book your tickets!

The children are doing really well in their TT Rockstars and Winning With Numbers work. Keep practising at home.

Next week is year 5 Sports day on Wednesday afternoon. The children have been developing the activities for this and are crossing their fingers for good weather. We hope to see you there.

Home Learning

 

Our expectation are for the children to read daily at home. We check their reading records each Friday. Please help us monitor this by keeping this record up to date.

 

It is essential that pupils develop quick recall of their times tables. We have regular TT Rockstars sessions in school. Pupils can practice their tables in a variety of ways including logging in to Sumdog from home

 

Sumdog activities will also be set on a regular basis. Each time these are set, the children have 1 week to complete these.
