Primary 5

Welcome to Mrs. Paton's Primary 5 Class!  

We have 20 wonderful children and two fantastic teaching assistants in our class.

Primary 5 is a fantastic year to be a part of. This year, we will explore various exciting topics and engage in fun and diverse learning activities. Throughout the year, we will carry out various learning tasks linked to our topics; we'll also conduct experiments and take part in investigations. We have made a fantastic start to the school year and are settling well into the new routine of Primary 5. 

We've got a busy and exciting year ahead of us, so please keep an eye on our class page to keep updated with our learning journey.

Curriculum Information

  • Ancient Egyptians

Homework

Homework will be sent home on a Monday for the whole week. Its purpose is to reinforce our learning in the classroom. It includes reading, spelling, and a mental maths focus each night. 

Reading:

Each week, we read our class novel together. We also read in our guided reading groups throughout the school week. Books are sent home for homework, and the children are encouraged to read each night. Parents and adults at home are urged to read with their children and ask lots of questions about the book, which will help develop fluency and comprehension skills.

Spellings:

The pupils will learn their spelling weekly. In class, they will participate in daily activities to explore spelling rhymes and acquire strategies to enable them to retain spellings and apply them in their written work. These strategies will be shared with parents/carers and should be encouraged at home.

Mental Maths:

It would be best to practice the mental maths focus for the week with your child each night; this will aid them in all areas of their mathematics. 

PE

Our PE days are on Monday and Wednesday. The children can wear their PE tracksuits to school or change into dark tracksuit bottoms/leggings and trainers.

Always TALK to your child about what they are doing in school - this is the best form of home learning you can do. Talk, listen, and join in where you can.
