"Our Lady guides us as we have fun learning together, aiming to be the best that we can be"
St Luke Year 5
 |
Autumn Term 2018
Welcome to Year 5 |
My name is Mr. McCarthy and I will be the class teacher of Year 5 this year alongside Mr. Coranti.
We look forward to working with your children to make learning a fun and interesting experience that can be used both inside and outside of the classroom. We look forward to a fun, productive and rewarding school term.
Mr. Coranti will be teaching Spanish across Junior Classes and will be assisting the development of PE across the school. He will also be helping me in class. Mrs. Sweeney and Mrs. Ross will be working with small groups to support reading.

St. Luke's have been learning about adding decimal numbers recently. They engaged in an addition dice challenge where they created numbers in pairs, in the hope of adding them to create the largest answer possible!
In RE, pupils have been looking at Human Experience as one of the sources of Revelation. They analysed a variety of KS1 picture story books to identify where God was present in the story. Pupils were not surprised that God was present in many different ways throughout the books.
In Science, year 5 were identifying thermal insulators. The pupils in blue bibs acted as the ice lollies. The pupils in the red bibs acted as hot air which melted the ice lollies. The pupils in the green bibs acted as the insulators, protecting the ice lollies from the hot air. Lots of learning and laughs took place!
Congratulations to another well deserving recipient of a pen licence. This was achieved through producing neat, cursive writing throughout all books in school.
Year five have recently been studying 'Letter Writing' in Literacy lessons. They have been identifying formal and informal language as well as changing words and sentences into the opposite format.
Year 5 and year 6 went on a trip to Wembley library recently for a workshop regarding Black History Month. Pupils were involved in discussion, drawing and writing during the workshop. They thoroughly enjoyed themselves and further enhanced their knowledge about Black History.
In RE, pupiils have been looking at the topic 'Beginning with God'. They were examining metaphors for God in the Bible and stating how God is similar or different to these metaphors.
A police officer recently presented a workshop on bullying to the pupils. The pupils were engaged throughout and responded fantastically with many thought provoking questions.
