Year 5/6

Hello and welcome to Year 5/6!

Welcome to our class page. This page is designed to give families easy access to the key information and documents you may need throughout the school year.

In the Useful Documents section at the bottom of the page, you will find our half-termly class learning leaflets. These give an overview of the learning taking place across the curriculum and help families understand the key knowledge, skills and topics children will be developing. They also include important practical information, such as PE days, when children should come to school in their PE uniform.

You will also find our homework leaflets, which explain the homework offer for your child’s year group and how you can support learning at home, as well as our half-termly vocabulary maps, which highlight important words and subject-specific vocabulary children will encounter in their learning.

Throughout the year, we will also upload any other useful year-group information, including documents linked to parent information meetings, residential visits, trips, transition information and any other events or arrangements that are relevant to your child’s class.

We recommend checking this page regularly so that you can stay up to date with what your child is learning and access important information throughout the year.

Vocabulary

At St Nicholas, we believe vocabulary is fundamental to learning. 

Our core vocabulary is explicitly taught, practised and revisited within each subject, helping children develop secure subject knowledge and use key language confidently. Alongside this, children encounter exposure vocabulary through reading, discussion and learning across the curriculum.

Each half term, subject vocabulary progression maps are shared with families, showing the core vocabulary children are learning and how this develops across the school. You can find these at the bottom of our class page. Use the diagram below to explore how we build vocabulary from exposure to secure, independent use.
