Welcome to Jupiter (Y5)
We are Jupiter. In our class the children will be working with Miss Glisson, Mrs Ellis and Miss Turner. Our aim for this year is to make sure the children feel happy, safe and valued in order to make progress in their learning. We want the children to learn new skills, take on new challenges and grow in confidence throughout the year.
We will be rewarded each week for good behaviour, following our school rules and working hard. We can earn Dojo points individually, positive letters home and can be named Star of the Week. We can also earn a whole class reward if we work well as a team to achieve our goals.
Children will have weekly spellings, reading and homework tasks. Please encourage your child to complete their home learning and continue to practise their times tables. Spellings are practised on Edshed and are set weekly and for times tables we use TT Rockstars. We have also sent a reading record home with your child and ask that you read at least 3 times a week with them and note this in their record. Please can children hand their reading record in on a Thursday so we can reward excellent reading behaviour.
Our PE days will be a Wednesday and Thursday (swimming). Mr Stratford will be coaching the children on Wednesday. Your child needs to have their PE kit/swimming kit, including suitable footwear on these days and earrings must be removed.
We will use Class Dojo to post class information, reminders and a termly overview so please login if you haven’t already. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have, we are always happy to help.
We look forward to a fantastic year ahead with your children, creating wonderful memories, working hard and being our best selves!
