Mrs Mitchell’s class
My name is Mrs Mitchell and I teach Year 5.
PE Days
Our PE days are Monday (PE) and Thursday (Swimming).
We wear black shorts or trousers, a white t-shirt and trainers.
Earrings need to be removed for safety or covered with tape.
On a Swimming day, our PE lesson is swimming and pupils will require a swimming kit (one piece costume or trunks, towel and a swimming hat). Pupils should not wear earrings or any form of jewellery for this lesson.
Home learning
We need to complete 25 minutes of Times Table Rockstars. This should be completed independently with minimal support and supervision.
We are given spellings on a Monday which should be practised, and activities completed by Friday that week. Sometimes we may need adult support to help us practise and to test that we have learned our spellings.
Reading is important and we must read at least 3 times per week at home with an adult. Adults should write about how we read e.g was there a word we were stuck on, did we read fluently, did we understand the meaning of vocabulary, and could we answer questions about events and characters?
We must bring reading books into school every day to help us with our reading.
