We have had a fantastic first week in Year 5 and have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the children. Each child should have brought home a welcome booklet, copies of which are available on the year 5 notice board.

This year we are watching a video series about how students can develop a growth mindset! Watch it at: www.classdojo.com/BigIdeas, and ask your child these questions tonight.

1. What was the biggest challenge you faced today? (Ask your child, and then have them ask the question back!)

2. How can you and I think about these challenges in a new way?

3. What can we do differently tomorrow if we face similar challenges?

Finally, if you are available to help Mrs Brehaut’s class with reading on Thursday or Friday morning 8:50 – 9:20am, please let her know.

Have a lovely weekend,

The Year 5 Team
