Information for Year Five

Welcome to Spring 2, we hope you've had a restful and safe half term.

This half term, work will be completed on Teams and submitted for us to mark. Please see the videos below- by Mr. Tilley- if you are unsure about accessing/using Microsoft Teams.

Any resources you need will be available in the files on Teams; this is to minimise printing and enable us to provide feedback to you daily. Please ask, if you need any help. Completing work this way means parents will no longer need to send work in through the year group email.

Please ensure you spend time playing TT Rockstars, Mathletics and Spelling Shed too.

If in doubt ask. Email us at newfieldy5@newfield.dudley.sch.uk

Best wishes,

Mr. Cochrane and Mrs. Saunders
