Growing In Faith and Learning
Welcome to Falcons!
Falcons Class is Upper Key Stage Two with Year 5 and 6 children. This year Falcons will be taught by Miss Williams with the support of Mrs. Hateley (Teaching Assistant) for four mornings a week. Mrs Lowe has been teaching Year 5 every morning since January.
HOME LEARNING DURING SCHOOL CLOSURE
Please see below for your child's daily home learning tasks. The Maths, English, Spelling and Guided Reading will be year group specific so please ensure your child/ren are completing the correct tasks.
If you have any queries about learning, please either email or send a dojo message to either myself or Mrs Lowe.

Year 5 Falcons
I have put your work for the week into a grid (below). Look at the day and you will see a maths, reading, spelling and writing task. If you see a PDF or a PowerPoint just double click on it and the work will open. Please remember to keep in touch and share your work with me.
Mrs Lowe
Can you make your own set of lungs?

If you struggle to be able to make the lungs due to resources, can you make a poster or presentation to explain how lungs work. It would be brilliant if you could send your pictures on Dojo so I can see what you have been up to.
Have fun!

Reading
Children are encouraged to read a range of texts and as often as they can in Upper Key Stage 2. They have free choice what they read and this could be books, magazines, newspapers etc. Please encourage your child in their reading as this has a positive impact on their learning in general.
Times tables and Spelling
Times tables and spelling tests will be completed on a Wednesday afternoon. Please ensure your child has their spelling sentences in school on this day.
PE
Children will have outdoor PE lessons on a Tuesday and indoor lessons on a Friday afternoon.
Please ensure that a full kit is in school on these days. As the cold weather is now upon us, it is really important that children have a tracksuit for outdoor PE. Jewellery should be removed and long hair must be tied back. Thank you.
Water Bottles
Children should have a water bottle, containing either water or squash only, in school each day please.
