Birch 2022 - 2023
Miss Mortimer
Welcome to Birch Class!
We have got lots of exciting learning planned for our Year 5 topics this half term including our Science topic on the Life Cycle of Humans and our new Geography topic on The Americas. In English we will be studying a variety of Ancient Greek myths and writing a variety of fiction and non-fiction texts based on our reading. Our Maths work will include multiplication, division, perimeter and area. In DT we will investigate electrical systems and use the skills we learn to make our own model cars.
Our PE lessons will be on a Thursday when we are lucky enough to be taking part in trampolining as part of our gymnastics module. Please ensure your children come to school dressed in their PE kits - they can then wear these for the whole school day.
Please remember to practise your weekly spellings and try to read your books for at least 5 minutes every day! Please also continue to practice your times tables regularly using TT Rockstars to help you.. You will also have a home learning grid where the expectation is that you will complete one activity each week. There will be Dojo points available for children who are working on their learning at home.
If you have any concerns or questions, or need to contact us for any reason, you can call the office on 01772 729337, message us through Class Dojo or email us at g.mortimer@roebuck.lancs.sch.uk
Many thanks for your support.
Miss Mortimer, Mrs Ward, Mrs Cookson and Miss Gimenez
