Welcome to the Year 5 Class Page!
We are an incredible team of children, taught by Miss Devanney, Mrs Moorhouse and Miss White!
In Year 5 we always try our hardest to be fabulous role models for our school, especially the younger children. We approach our learning with a huge eagerness, always striving to be our best, keeping a positive mindset and never giving up!
Were the Vikings just invaders?
Our topic will explore who the Vikings were and where they came from. We will learn how the Vikings travelled and how this enabled them to explore the world, how they traded and all about their raids! We will look in detail at where they invaded, how they invaded, and why they invaded and the different types of warriors they were. Finally we will learn how England became unified and how Viking rule in the Danelaw ended after decades of fighting and how the Vikings left a lasting influence on England.
Keep checking ClassDojo and the school Facebook page for updates on how we are getting on!
We cannot wait to see what journey the rest of this academic year takes us on and what experiences we have together!

Reading!
It is so important to keep up the level of reading you do in school at home. When you have read at home and get your record signed by an adult you can collect stickers on our class chart! The more stickers you get, the more chance of some amazing prizes! Also, a Reader of the Week certificate is up for grabs! What an achievement!
