We love teaching in Year 5 because there are so many fantastic things to learn and do!
We love reading and the teachers in Year 5 are full of recommendations of books you should read. We know that reading is important and can help you become independent learners. Therefore, we dedicate time to practise independent reading and have Reading for Pleasure lessons where we spend time sharing, reading, and doing all sorts of great book-related activities! Although, to be honest, we spend most of our time talking about books anyway!
We don’t have ‘topics’ in Key Stage Two but we link subjects where there are meaningful links. We teach a broad range of wider curriculum subjects including Art and Design, Design and Technology, French, Science, Computing, RE, PSHE, Music, History and Geography but here are a few highlights from each term:
Autumn: Space, mountains and Ancient Islamic Civilisation
Spring: Royalty through time, rivers and changing materials!
Summer: Extreme Weather, Revolution in Nottingham and Architecture
We cover a wide range of areas so if you would like to know more about what we learn in Year 5, take a look at our curriculum pages for a further break down or at our newsletters below.
If you have any questions or queries about Year 5, please ask one of the Year 5 teaching team who are always more than happy to help!
Many thanks,
The Year 5 Team
