Reading:
Please try and read with your child every night. Really focus on asking questions about their book as this will help them with their reading comprehension.
Finally, if there are any questions or concerns please feel free to speak to any of us before or after the school day.
Keep in touch by checking our page often and discover what we are learning about through our regular blog posts!
Home Learning:
We use Google Classroom as the main source of home school learning.
We find this works really well with our Chromebooks in school and allows children to pick up their tasks and work from their devices at home.
The link to our Google classroom is here: Y5 Google Classroom 2025-26 (Login details are required to access)
