Year 5 Virtual Library

Reading

Year 5 Recommended Reading List

Giving children access to all varieties of literature is extremely important for their success. Reading is a key life skill which is crucial to developing language skills and access to the wider curriculum. It provides children with the chance to respond and develop personal opinions encouraging deeper thoughts and their imagination.  Our aim is to develop a love and passion for reading both at home and school.  We have specially selected high quality reading books for each year group.  Some of these books can be found in the classroom and some are available for loan at Lees library. Encourage your child to read as many of these books as possible throughout the year.

Please select the document below to see the books we recommend.

Home Learning

Home Learning

At St Thomas’ we believe that the link between home and school is essential to ensure your child can continue to make good progress. Below are some of the ways you can help:

  • Encourage your child to complete our 9 Grid homework every week.  They will have a booklet for each term.
  • Discuss your child’s learning and topic work. Ask about their ‘Always’ badge.

Your child will need his / her planner everyday so that we are able to keep in contact and it must be signed weekly.  This is checked every Friday.
