Yew Class Year 5B
Welcome to Yew Class
We have lots of exciting learning, trips and experiences in the year ahead and we look forward to sharing this with you on our class page.
Your child needs to bring their own named water bottle to school every day (water only).
Please come to school wearing P.E. kits on MONDAYS.
If you have any questions, please feel free to speak to a member of staff in Yew, contact the office or speak to a member of staff on the gates who will be happy to help.
Home learning:
- Please read with your child 3x a week and sign their yellow reading record.
- Please make sure your child practises their new spellings at home (they will come home with their spelling list on a Monday) and brings in their spelling list on a Friday.
- Please make sure your child practises their timestables on TT rockstars and completes maths activities on mathletics (their login will be in their yellow reading record).

Other Learning opportunities at home
If you wish to support your child's learning in other ways too, you will have information about the areas of learning your child will be focusing on in class, explained in the curriculum newsletters that come home every half term.
These can also be found on the class page, under each topic heading icon. For example, you could work with your child to find out more about the history, geography or science topics that they are learning about.
Also your child’s teacher might on occasion set extra challenges for you to try at home such as spelling tests or something to research at home linked to the current learning topic.
