Radcliffe Primary School

Hello and welcome to Class 5/6F's page!  

 

I am Mrs Francis and I am the class teacher in our class. We are also very lucky to have the wonderful Miss Dignan and Miss Prescott supporting us too.

 

Here in Year 5/6F, we learn about some interesting topics and our learning follows some fabulous themes.  This year learning will take us through space and back to the time of the Anglo Saxons. Our learning and fun does not stop there – we will learn about important changes our bodies will go through as we hit puberty, take part in more creative activities during our Art and DT lessons and learn about a variety of music styles and their origins. 

 

Reading is also very important to us in 5/6F, and we aim to give everyone the opportunity to develop a love of reading.  This is done through lots of whole class reading, opportunities to read independently and the chance to become a Reading Ambassador for our school. Children will also use Accelerated Reader quizes to help ensure they have a sound knowledge of the texts that they have read.

 

For the Year 6’s, they will face new challenges on theirbtrip to PGL amd will take part in bikeability sessions. Also, they will be guided through the preparation process for SATs, having lots of opportunities to complete practice papers and become familiar with the assessment process.  Although, for many children, this can be a daunting time, rest assured, we will be on hand to support the children (and parents) through every aspect of ‘SATs’.  You can help your child at home by ensuring they read regularly and practice their Times Tables to keep their knowledge of the facts fresh.

 

For the year 5's, they will have the chance to take on new responsibilities and take part in different enrichment oppertunities.

 

All the children have access to Purple Mash, where activities will be set to enhance every child's learning experiences.

 

Finally, we want to share as much of our learning with you, so you can see what the children get up to on a daily basis.  Keep a close eye on our Class Dojo Story, and click ‘Follow’ on our Twitter page.
