I hope everyone enjoyed the Summer break and is looking forward to the start of the Autumn term in Year 5 with Mr Walker and Mrs Goldsack. We want to make sure that you are fully informed so please come and ask if you have any questions or queries or jot something down in the Reading Record. Remember your child needs to bring it into school every day so that messages can be acted upon and reading checked.
This term our topic is 'The Victorians.'
If you would be interested in offering assistance with other aspects of the curriculum, please contact the school office for further information.
Welcome to Year 5
1/2
On move up day Year 5 created Victorian silhouettes of themselves
Support your child with daily reading and encourage them by ticking that you have heard/seen them read in their home school book. Don’t forget to add a comment yourself.
Home School books to come into school every day, please.
Spellings can be practised using the Spelling Shed website without the app.
It is also very helpful if you can practice all the times tables up to x12. Don't forget your division facts too. Your child will bring home a password for Times table Rockstars.
Our Year 5 Spiritual Space
Spiritual spaces enable children and young people, of all faiths and none, to explore life’s questions, spirituality, and faith in a safe, creative, and interactive way. In Year 5 we have a range of books ranging from bible stories, parables and collections of prayers for the children to explore.
Reading is really important in Year 5. We have lots of different things to read. We have 100s of Beano comics and First News Newspapers. We also have 'Horrible Histories' and 'Horrible Science' magazines. There are also National Geographic Kids issues and 100s of exciting 'Phoenix' stories to jump into. Year 5 also has audio books to listen to on our class mp3 players. Children also have the opportunity to take how a 'Mystery Book'. This is a book that they take home - sight unseen - to read the first page. If they are hooked by the introduction then they keep the book until they have finished it. They can return the book if the first page doesn't spark their interest. This allows the class to try out new authors they might otherwise miss out on.
Year 5's reading corner. What will you read today?
The focus for the first half of the term will be our class story ‘Street Child ‘by Berlie Doherty. The unforgettable tale of an orphan in Victorian London, based on the boy whose plight inspired Dr Barnardo to found his famous children’s homes.
When his mother dies, Jim Jarvis is left all alone in London. He is sent to the workhouse but quickly escapes, choosing a hard life on the streets of the city over the confines of the workhouse walls.
Struggling to survive, Jim finally finds some friends… only to be snatched away and made to work for the remorselessly cruel Grimy Nick, constantly guarded by his vicious dog, Snipe.
Will Jim ever manage to be free?
Over the first half term we will be writing character descriptions and settings using Street Child as a model. Later on we will be writing diary entries as if Year 5 were Jim Jarvis. Have your handkerchiefs at the ready!
Watch the author Berlie Doherty reading the very first chapter below.
Guided Reading Autumn 1: Street Child
During the first half term Year 5 will be using the VIPERS approach to answer questions about our class reader Street Child.
VIPERS is an acronym to aid the recall of the 6 reading domains as part of the UK’s reading curriculum. They are the key areas which we feel children need to know and understand in order to improve their comprehension of texts.
VIPERS stands for
Vocabulary
Inference
Prediction
Explanation
Retrieval
Sequence or Summarise
The 6 domains focus on the comprehension aspect of reading.
Guided Reading Autumn 2 : Cogheart
During Autumn 2 we will be reading Cogheart by Peter Bunzl. Lily's life is in mortal peril. Her father is missing and now silver-eyed men stalk her through the shadows. What could they want from her?
With her friends - Robert, the clockmaker's son, and Malkin, her mechanical fox - Lily is plunged into a murky and menacing world. Too soon Lily realizes that those she holds dear may be the very ones to break her heart...
Murder, mayhem and mystery meet in this gripping Victorian adventure.
Watch the author talking about his series of books and reading the prologue. Enjoy!

Science Autumn 1: Properties and changes of materials
In Science this term we will be learning to:
compare and group together everyday materials on the basis of their properties, including their hardness, solubility, transparency, conductivity (electrical and thermal), and response to magnets
know that some materials will dissolve in liquid to form a solution, and describe how to recover a substance from a solution
use knowledge of solids, liquids and gases to decide how mixtures might be separated, including through filtering, sieving and evaporating
give reasons, based on evidence from comparative and fair tests, for the particular uses of everyday materials, including metals, wood and plastic
demonstrate that dissolving, mixing and changes of state are reversible changes
explain that some changes result in the formation of new materials, and that this kind of change is not usually reversible, including changes associated with burning and the action of acid on bicarbonate of soda

Religious Education at Isleham Primary School
Isleham is a proud Church of England school where Religious Education is a subject of the utmost importance to us. We teach from a Christian perspective based on the teachings of Christ and the theology of the Church of England. We believe that RE helps children develop empathy and an understanding of their own beliefs and the faith of others. We also teach our children about other faiths and religions too. We expect that all children know about the significant events in other religions, understand how these promote faith for their followers and that these events or practices deserve our respect. Each year the children will work through the Understanding Christianity scheme and this is supplemented by the local Cambridgeshire Agreed Syllabus
In EYFS, we introduce children to the similarities and differences between different religions and cultural communities through questions such as which people are special and why, and what is special about our world?
In KS1, we cover a wide range of themes such as sacred books, sacred places and the celebration of special and sacred times with specific, focused units on Islam, Judaism and Christianity.
In KS2, we cover a wide range of themes, building on KS1 content. We look at why festivals are important and why people pray, to what do religions say to us when life gets hard? Focused units are based around Islam, Humanism, Christianity and Buddhism.
Understanding Christianity
The key purpose of this Programme is to help all teachers support pupils in developing their own thinking and their understanding of Christianity, as a contribution to their understanding of the world and their own experience within it.
We aim to see pupils leave school with a coherent understanding of Christian belief and practice. Pupils from 5-11 explore the significant theological concepts within Christianity as part of developing their wider religious, theological and cultural literacy.
Understanding Christianity has identified eight core concepts at the heart of mainstream Christian belief. It sets out some knowledge ‘building blocks’, to clarify what pupils should know and understand about these concepts at each school phase. It provides a teaching and learning approach to unpack these concepts and their impact in the lives of Christians in the UK and the world today, making connections with the world of the pupils and their wider understanding.
God: Fundamental to Christian belief is the existence of God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit Creation Christians believe the universe and human life are God’s good creation. Humans are made in the image of God.
Fall: Humans have a tendency to go their own way rather than keep their place in relation to their creator. This attitude is called sin, and Genesis 3 gives an account of this rebellion, popularly called ‘the Fall’. This describes a catastrophic separation between God and humans, between humans and each other, and between humans and the environment. This idea that humans are ‘fallen’ and in need of rescue (or salvation) sets out the root cause of many problems for humanity.
People of God: The Old Testament tells the story of God’s plan to reverse the impact of the Fall, to save humanity. It involves choosing a people who will model a restored relationship with God, who will attract all other people back to God. The Bible narrative includes the ups and downs of this plan, including the message of the prophets who tried to persuade people to stick with God. The plan appears to end in failure with the people of God exiled, and then returning, awaiting a ‘messiah’ – a rescuer.
Incarnation: The New Testament presents Jesus as the answer: the Messiah and Saviour, who will repair the effects of sin and the Fall and offer a way for humans to be at one with God again. Incarnation means that Jesus is God in the flesh, and that, in Jesus, God came to live amongt humans.
Gospel: Christians believe Jesus’ incarnation is ‘good news’ for all people. (‘Gospel’ means ‘good news’.) His life, teaching and ministry embody what it is like to be one of the People of God, what it means to live in relationship with God. Jesus’ example and teaching emphasise loving one’s neighbour – particularly the weak and vulnerable – as part of loving God.
Salvation: Jesus’ death and resurrection effect the rescue or salvation of humans. He opens the way back to God. Christians believe that through Jesus, sin is dealt with, forgiveness offered, and the relationship between God and humans is restored.
Kingdom of God: This does not mean that no one sins any more! The Bible talks in terms of God’s ‘Kingdom’ having begun in human hearts through Jesus. The idea of the ‘Kingdom of God’ reflects God’s ideal for human life in the world – a vision of life lived in the way God intended for human beings. Christians look forward to a time when God’s rule is fulfilled at some future point, in a restored, transformed heaven and earth. Meanwhile, they seek to live this attractive life as in God’s Kingdom, following Jesus’ example, inspired and empowered by God’s Spirit.
