Year 5 Curriculum Map
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)
Our Trips:
In Year 5, we have exciting trips planned to the following places:

Reflection
Today we have used mirrors to explore reflection.
We noticed how the image was flipped when the mirror was placed on the mirror line.
The children enjoyed creating their own designs and seeing them reflected through their mirrors.
Battleships
To help support our understanding of coordinates, we played in pairs a game of Battleships.
Diamond Nine
Today we discussed solutions to pollution and how we can help.
In pairs, we used a Diamond Nine to rank which solution we felt would be most effective and least effective.
The children then justified their choices.
