Year 5 Mr Cheshire

Welcome to Year 5

Teacher: Mr Cheshire

Teaching Assistant: Miss Watford

Welcome to Year 5! The class teacher is Mr Cheshire and the teaching assistant is Miss Watford.  We will also very lucky to be joined by a teaching student, Miss Adams this year. We currently have 24 children in Year 5 at Siddal.  All pupils will need suitable P.E. kits for both indoor and outdoor sports on Thursday and Friday. Year 5 homework is usually linked to our topic and given out at the beginning of term with a range of activities for the children to choose from. Reading books are changed at least once a week and are chosen by the children. When a book is completed, the children complete an Accelerated Reader quiz on the book to show that they have understood what they have read.  Spellings are sent home on Fridays for a test on the following Friday; these are generally taken from the year 5 expectation list. In Year 5, we will have different times tables to focus on each week and the children should practise these at home.
