For our first half term, we will be revisiting place value, Roman numerals, powers of 10, plus consolidating the key mathematical skills of multiplication, division, addition and subtraction. We practice past skills with daily flashback activities as well as weekly CLIC tests.
Miss Laura Bailey
Panthers class teacher / History lead
I'm delighted to be working in year 5 as the Panther's class teacher. We are lucky enough to be starting our year 5 journey with the Tudors - Which I love! I aim to encourage the class to be as enthusiastic as I am about the subject by using interactive learning techniques and allowing them to guide their own learning. I can't wait to see where they take us!
Throughout year 5, my aim is to nurture independence, a love of learning and fun!
Mr Jonathan Parker
Key Stage 2 and Maths Lead, Tigers Class Teacher
As most of you know I have been teaching at Dale Hall for over 20 years now - I can't imagine teaching anywhere else, it is such a wonderful school and our pupils are clearly the best around! I really enjoy teaching in Year 5, it has such a fun and interesting curriculum. I am also looking forward to working again with many of the children I had got to know a little back in Year 3 and to see the progress they have made.
Miss Viki Killeen
Tigers Class Teacher and Teaching and Learning Lead
I am delighted to be returning to Year 5 this year and cannot wait to get stuck in to all of the amazing learning we will be undertaking. We often see a huge transformation in the children's desire to be independent learners in Year 5 and it is a huge passion of mine to nurture this and to equip them with the learning skills they need to reach their full potential in this way. I will be working as Tigers class teacher on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and look forward to all this year has to bring!
