Year 5 Home Learning

Welcome to your Home Learning Class Page!

This is where you will find the activities we have set you along with the resources needed. There are daily activities for Maths, English and Reading along with a task for each foundation subject. We have also provided optional extra activities for you to complete if you wish. Look at the 'Year 5 Home Learning' PDF which maps out your activities and provides links to useful websites.

Please remember that this is your learning and your timetable so it is up to you which order you complete the tasks and how long you spend on them. We have included a suggested timetable but please don't feel you need to stick to this.

You will find all guidance and resources for all the tasks in the 'Files to Download' section. Maths, English and Reading will be uploaded weekly, but foundation projects will be updated every two weeks to give you time to get through them all. 

We really hope you enjoy the activities we have set you! Keep up with the amazing hard work that you have shown so far this year! Remember! You are all superstars! 

Best wishes,

Mrs Allmand-Smith, Miss Swan and Mrs Wigglesworth
