Inspire Class
'You're braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.'
A.A. Milne
Welcome to Inspire Class. Here in Year Five, you will find 30 friendly, fun and fabulous children who are taught by myself, Mrs. Whittaker, alongside Mrs. Bride and Mrs. Burgess and together we aim to make each day exciting and full of opportunities to grow.
This year, we will be exploring a wide range of fascinating topics—from the vast landscapes of North America to the adventures of the Vikings and Anglo-Saxons, the wonders of our local history and the mysteries of the Solar System. Our creativity will flourish through imaginative art and DT projects and we look forward to sharing our learning journey with you during class assemblies and topic afternoons.
If you ever have any questions, please feel free to catch me at the door or get in touch via email.

SUMMER TIMETABLE
Routines in Class
At the start of the day, children will enter the classroom where they will settle into some basic daily arithmetic practise questions.
Morning break will be at 11am. If you wish, you may send a healthy snack in with your child for them to consume at this time.
Reading:
We ask that you read with your child as often as possible. Your child will have a reading record that can be signed by yourself every time your child reads or is read to.
In KS2, children are expected read for 20-minutes each evening and to quiz regularly on Accelerated Reader upon completion of their book. As a minimum, we generally expect that children quiz at least once every fortnight. This helps aid their fluency and stamina to digest larger volumes of text - excellent preparation for the Year 6 curriculum.
PE:
PE sessions will consist of Swimming on a Monday afternoon and FUNDA on a Wednesday morning.
Children should come into school dressed in their PE kits (plain black leggings/joggers, PE T-shirt and school hoody, jumper or cardigan).
Homework:
Homework will be set using Century Tech - an interactive web-based learning platform- and it is expected that children complete the 3 maths nuggets/assignments allocated per week by the following Friday. Your child will receive their login details at the start of term, which will be stored in their reading journal. In addition, further homework may be given to enhance or consolidate the learning that has taken place in class.
