Welcome to Silver Birch Class

Welcome to our class page! 

We are so excited to get started on another year in Silver Birch class. Our Year 5s are more than ready to become Year 6 and are looking forward to welcoming their new classmates coming up from Year 4 in September! 

Over the summer holidays, it would be fabulous if children could keep up with a little bit of learning to ensure that they are ready and raring to go in September. This doesn't mean they need to sit and do endless worksheets, but it would be great if they could find practical ways to learn, such as writing the shopping list, reading and following recipes, working out their change when buying an ice lolly... 

Overall, I wish you all a restful and relaxing summer and I can't wait to see all the children again in September. Please make use of the links on this page to see what they will be learning next year, look back at some of the experiences of Silver Birch class last year or find links to useful learning websites like TT rockstars. 

For September: 

If your children have been 'wowing' you at home with something, please feel free to send a picture or a summary of what they have been up to to the School Office - we would love to feature them on our WOW wall in the hall! 

Please see our 'What have we been up to?' tab to keep up to date with what we have been doing!  

As we don't have set PE days, your PE kit will need to be in school every day, so please make sure you have this ready and named! It would be a good idea to take this home on a Friday to wash and bring back in for the following Monday. We usually have PE on Wednesdays and Thursdays. 

Don't forget to keep your Mental Maths skills sharp on TTRS or Hit The Button (See links at the top of the page) . I would also like you to review the Year 5/6 spelling list at the top of the page and see which spellings you need to practice.

Homework will be set on a Friday and will be due in on the following Wednesday. This consists of weekly spellings to practice daily, times tables practice, daily reading and a 30 minute activity once a week. Spellings will be tested on a Friday each week. 

If there are any questions please just ask!
