Parrot Class - Year 5 and 6
Welcome to Parrot Class!
Welcome to Parrot Class! We are Year 5 & 6 and we are taught by Mrs Droy and Madame Ziebeck and our Teaching Assistant is Miss Nessling. We are looking forward to another busy term, full of lots of learning and hopefully having fun too.
This Summer term our Geography Topic is Wish You were Here! - comparing tourism and what makes people visit different places. Take a look at our topic map below to find out more about what else we'll be doing this term.
As Parrot class are ‘top’ of the school we’ll be leading the way and setting a great example to all the other children about how we behave each day, demonstrating our really positive attitude to learning.
Should you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact us.
Mrs Droy and Madame Ziebeck
Have a look at our Topic Map for Summer Term 2 to find out all the different things we'll be learning.
These are our Knowledge Organisers for Wish You Were Here! (Geography) and Animals Living things and their habitats (Science) topics. As we learn new vocabulary we will be adding this to our documents. At the end of term we'll look back and see how much we've learned!
Homework expectations
Homework will continue to be an important aspect of the children's learning during their time in Parrot Class.
Children will be expected to read daily (ideally to an adult), alongside a weekly READ task which is due on a Friday.
Children will be expected to work on their Maths Passport and spellings across the week as this will be assessed weekly.
Each half term a set of 6 pieces of homework will be on Seesaw. These include Maths, English, Science and other activities such as art. It is expected that all six pieces are completed by the due date (the last Tuesday of the term).
We are excited to be using Seesaw, our online platform. You'll find our weekly spellings, homework and communications from your class teacher on there. Please do have a look!
